Lot 181 Sweden SC#668a (Facit #HA15B1O)/668a (Facit #HA15AO) 1966 Re-Engraved King Gustav VI Adolf Definitive Issue, Two Different Covers, Inverted Panes, And Different Tab Markings, 2 VFNH Booklets of 6 (2 +2 +2), Estimated Value $7

2 VFNH booklets of 6 (2 +2 +2) from the 1966 Re-Engraved King Gustav VI Adolf Definitive Issue. Two different covers, inverted panes, and different tab markings. The Scott and Facit numbers range from 668a (Facit #HA15B1O) to 668a (Facit #HA15AO), and include 668a (Facit #HA15B1O & AO). The booklet covers show 2 and 4 lines of text on the front, are different on the backs, and show a dot pattern. The dot pattern on the covers are little divots that run the length of the cover. I've seen these exact same divots on examples of the integral Centennial Issue booklets of Canada, most notably BK69, but others as well. Both booklets show a central registration marking on the tab. One booklet, with the Djurpark back cover (split spine), has a bisected horizontal plate 2 marking in the tab, while the other booklet, that has the Frimarkshuset back cover (rouletted spine with 5 roulettes), shows 4 of the 6 digits of the control number in the tab. 2014 Facit Cat Kr. 52. Our estimate of the value based on the condition is $7.
