The legendary Coat of Arms stamps of Finland with serpentine roulette are well known to every philatelist!

Diese Marken in durchschnittlicher oder gar guter Qualität zu finden, ist sehr schwierig. Nur sehr weit fortgeschrittene Philatelisten trauen sich an diese Ausgaben heran. Ausstellungssammler müssen eine besondere Kollektion vorweisen, um die Juroren zu überzogen.

It is very difficult to find these stamps in good or even average quality. Only very advanced philatelists trust themselves to approach these issues. Exhibiting collectors must show a very special collection in order to impress the jurors.

Alle enthaltenen Lose waren in Sammlungen, die International mit der höchsten Auszeichnung Groß-Gold prämiert wurden! Die Sammlung beinhaltet seltenste Mischfrankaturen, seltenste Destinationen, Stücke mit berühmten Provenienzen wie unter anderem ‚Sibelius‘ (Corinphila 2003), Tobias Mellgren, Agathon Fabergé, oder Friedrich Andreas Breitfuss. Berühmte Unikate wie das Kehrdruckpaar der 5 Penni Braun oder der doppelseitige Druck der 20 Penni Blau sind in diesem einzigartigen Angebot ebenso enthalten wie die einmalige 4-fach-Frankatur der 1-Mark-Braungelb auf Brief nach London.

Allgemeine Versteigerungsbedingungen 1. Die Versteigerung erfolgt ausschließlich in fremdem Namen und für fremde Rechnung. Der Versteigerer ist berechtigt, die Rechte des Einlieferers aus dessen Auftrag und aus dem Zuschlag im eigenen Namen geltend zu machen. 2. Den Zuschlag erhält der Höchstbietende. Der Versteigerer hat in begründeten Fällen das Recht, den Zuschlag zu verweigern, Lose zurückzuziehen, umzugruppieren oder aufzuteilen. Bei gleichhohen Geboten entscheidet das Los. Ein Bieter bleibt an das abgegebene Gebot gebunden, wenn ein nachfolgendes Übergebot ungültig ist oder vom Versteigerer sofort zurückgewiesen wird. Der Versteigerer kann den Zuschlag zurücknehmen und das Los erneut anbieten, wenn irrtümlich ein rechtzeitig abgegebenes höheres Gebot übersehen worden ist oder wenn sonst Zweifel über den Zuschlag bestehen. Der Versteigerer kann unter dem Vorbehalt der Genehmigung des Einlieferers zuschlagen. Der Bieter bleibt dann an sein Gebot 4 Wochen ab dem Tag des Zuschlags gebunden. Bei einem Zuschlag unter Vorbehalt kann die Position ohne Rückfrage an einen anderen Limitbieter abgegeben werden. Mit dem Zuschlag kommt zwischen dem Einlieferer und dem Ersteigerer ein Kaufvertrag zustande. 3. Schriftliche Aufträge werden in jedem Fall gewissenhaft und interessewahrend, jedoch ohne Gewähr, ausgeführt. Die gebotenen Höchstpreise werden nur soweit ausgeschöpft, als es nötig ist, sonstige Gebote zu überbieten. Bei Geboten mit „bestens“ kann der Versteigerer bis zum Dreifachen, bei Höchstgebotsaufträgen (z.B. „höchst“, „auf alle Fälle“, „bis Ultimo“, „kaufen“) bis zum Zehnfachen des Ausrufpreises bieten. Das Mindestgebot für Auktionslose ohne Schätzpreis bzw. Schätzpreis „Gebot“ beträgt EUR 10,-. Online-Direkt-Gebote über das Internet bedürfen der vorherigen Anmeldung beim Versteigerer und dessen Zustimmung. Für die Bearbeitung übernimmt der Versteigerer jedoch keine Gewähr, er haftet inbesondere nicht für das Zustandekommen der technischen Verbindung. Das Widerrufs- und Rückgaberecht bei Fernabsatzverträgen findet auf solche Gebote keine Anwendung (§ 312 d Abs. 4 Nr. 5 BGB). 4. Der Versteigerer erhält vom Käufer eine Provision von 20 % des Zuschlagspreises sowie EUR 1,50 je gekauftem Los. Die Kosten für Porto, Verpackung, Versicherung und ggf. Import werden den Käufern in Rechnung gestellt. Die auf Provision und sämtliche sonstigen Leistungen (=Spesen) anfallende Mehrwertsteuer (derzeit 19 %) wird gesondert in Rechnung gestellt. Dies gilt auch für die Mehrwertsteuer auf Lose (derzeit 19 %) die mit einem Kreis (°) gekennzeichnet sind. Lieferungen in Drittländer sind gegen Vorlage des Ausfuhrnachweises von der USt. auf die Provision, auf Spesen, Losgebühr und eventuell Lospreis befreit. Lieferungen an Abnehmer aus anderen EU-Ländern mit UID-Nr. erfolgen unter Anwendung des Reverse Charge-Verfahrens, d.h. die Provision, die Spesen und die Losgebühr unterliegen nicht der Deutschen Umsatzsteuer; der Käufer ist in diesen Fällen verpflichtet, die USt. in seiner USt.-Erklärung in seinem Heimatland anzugeben. 5. Der Zuschlag verpflichtet zur Abnahme. Saalbieter haben die Kaufrechnung sofort auszugleichen, bei schriftlichen Bietern wird die Auktionsrechnung mit Zustellung fällig. Während oder unmittelbar nach der Auktion ausgestellte Rechnungen bedürfen einer besonderen Nachprüfung und eventueller Berichtigung; Irrtum vorbehalten. Wer für Dritte bietet, muß seine Vertreterstellung vor Beginn der Versteigerung offenlegen; andernfalls kommt der Kaufvertrag mit dem Bieter zustande. Bis zur vollständigen Zahlung - bei Zahlung durch Scheck oder Wechsel bis zur Einlösung - bleiben die Lose Eigentum des Einlieferers. Ein Anspruch auf Herausgabe der ersteigerten Lose besteht erst nach vollständiger Kaufpreiszahlung. Kosten des Geldverkehrs gehen zu Lasten des Käufers. 6. Ist der Käufer mit seiner Zahlung in Verzug, werden Zinsen in Höhe von 1 % pro angefangenem Monat berechnet. Der Zinssatz kann höher oder niedriger angesetzt werden, wenn der Versteigerer eine Belastung mit einem höheren Zinssatz oder der Käufer eine geringere Belastung nachweist; der Zinssatz beträgt aber mindestens 5 % über dem

Basiszinssatz pro Jahr. Kommt der Käufer seiner Zahlungsverpflichtung nicht nach oder nimmt er die ersteigerten Lose nicht ab, so ist der Versteigerer berechtigt, vom Ersteigerer einen pauschalen Schadensersatz von 25 % der Zuschlagsumme als Ausgleich für entgangene Einlieferer- und Käuferprovision sowie entstandene Aufwendungen zu verlangen, sofern der Käufer nicht nachweist, daß ein Schaden überhaupt nicht oder nicht in der Höhe der Pauschale entstanden ist. Die Geltendmachung eines nachgewiesenen höheren Schadens durch den Versteigerer bleibt unberührt. 7. Die Versendung ersteigerter Lose erfolgt auf Rechnung des Käufers. Wenn der Käufer ein Unternehmer ist, geht die Gefahr auf den Käufer über, sobald die Ware versandfertig der Post oder einem anderen Versandunternehmen übergeben worden ist. Der Versteigerer bietet für die Versendung eine Transportversicherung an, deren Kosten der Käufer zu tragen hat. 8. Die zur Versteigerung kommenden Sachen können vor der Auktion besichtigt und geprüft werden. Die Katalogbeschreibungen sind keine Garantien für die Beschaffenheit der Sachen. Der Versteigerer übernimmt keine Haftung für Mängel. Er verpflichtet sich jedoch, Mängelrügen, die ihm rechtzeitig angezeigt werden, unverzüglich an den Einlieferer weiterzuleiten. Im Falle einer Rückabwicklung des Kaufvertrages erstattet der Versteigerer dem Erwerber das Aufgeld; ein darüber hinausgehender Anspruch ist ausgeschlossen. Reklamationen bezüglich offener Mängel müssen innerhalb von 10 Tagen nach Übergabe oder Zustellung der Lose bei dem Versteigerer eingegangen sein. Der Versteigerer kann zum Nachweis der Mängel vom Käufer auf dessen Kosten die Einholung von Prüfattesten durch zwei voneinander unabhängige Spezialprüfer verlangen. Bei Sammlungen, Sammellosen oder sonstigen Großlosen sind Reklamationen jeglicher Art, insbesondere im Hinblick auf Qualität und Quantität ausgeschlossen. Sofern die Beschreibung nichts anderes ausweist, sind angegebene Katalogwerte unverbindlich. Lose, die bereits mit Fehlern beschrieben sind, können wegen weiterer kleiner Mängel nicht reklamiert werden. Fehler, die sich aus den Abbildungen ergeben (Schnitt, Zähnung, Stempel, Zentrierung usw.) können nicht zum Gegenstand einer Reklamation gemacht werden. Jede Reklamation ist ausgeschlossen, wenn Lose oder Marken verändert worden sind. Als Veränderung gelten insbesondere auch Entfernen von Falzen, Falz- oder Papierresten, Wässern, Behandlung mit Chemikalien und Anbringen von Zeichen jeder Art. Erfolgt ein Zuschlag unter Vorbehalt der Prüfung, wird diese vom Versteigerer veranlaßt, wenn vom Bieter nicht anders bestimmt; die Kosten trägt der Käufer. Durch die Abgabe eines Gebotes auf bereits geprüfte Marken oder auf Marken mit Attest werden die Prüfzeichen bzw. Atteste, die dem Käufer zur Einsicht bzw. Kenntnisnahme zur Verfügung stehen, von diesem als maßgebend anerkannt, es sei denn, der Bieter hat sein Gebot unter Vorbehalt der Bestätigung durch einen von ihm bestimmten und von dem Versteigerer akzeptierten Sachverständigen abgegeben. Marken, die eindeutig als Fälschung ermittelt werden, können von den Prüfern als solche gekennzeichnet werden. Der Auktionator ist berechtigt, den Käufer mit allen Reklamationen an den Einlieferer zu verweisen. 9. Die vorgenannten Versteigerungsbedingungen gelten sinngemäß auch für den freihändigen Verkauf; die Bestimmungen über Fernabsatzverträge finden darauf keine Anwendung. 10. Erfüllungsort und Gerichtsstand für den kaufmännischen Verkehr ist Wiesbaden. Es gilt ausschließlich deutsches Recht. 11. Mündliche Abreden sind nicht getroffen. Änderungen oder Ergänzungen dieses Vertrages bedürfen der Schriftform. 12. Sollte eine der vorstehenden Bestimmungen ganz oder teilweise unwirksam sein, wird die Gültigkeit der übrigen davon nicht berührt. Stand: August 2016

General Conditions for Auction 1. The auction is held exclusively on behalf of and for the account of third parties. The auctioneer is authorized to pursue in his own name all rights and claims arising from the vendor’s instructions or the knocking down of lots. 2. Lots are knocked down to the highest bidder. The auctioneer has the right in justified cases to refuse to knock down a lot, and to withdraw, combine and divide lots. Equal bids are determined by drawing lots. A bidder is bound by his bid if it is followed by a higher bid which is invalid or which is immediately refused by the auctioneer. In case that a higher bid, which was placed in time, erroneously was overlooked or in any other cases of doubt, the auctioneer may cancel the knocking down and reoffer the lot. The auctioneer may knock down a lot subject to the seller’s subsequent approval. The bidder is then bound by his bid for a period of four weeks from the date of making the bid. In case of a lot being knocked down subject to approval it can, however, be sold to another limit bidder without further inquiry. On the fall of the hammer a contract is established between the seller and the buyer. The auctioneer is legally bound, if so requested, to divulge the seller’s name to the buyer and the buyer’s name to the seller. 3. Written orders to bid will be executed conscientiously and safeguarding the client’s interests, but without recourse. The maximum prices as offered will be exhausted only to the extent as necessary to overbid other offers. In case of a bid „at best” the auctioneer may bid up to three times the start price, in case of bids „at any price” or „buy” up to ten times.The minimum bid for lots without estimate or for lots marked with „Gebot” is EUR 10,-. On-line bidding via the Internet requires the consent of the auctioneer prior to the auction. For processing of the online bids the auctioneer takes no responsibility, espacially not in regards to the state and/or quality of the internet connection.The distance contracts laws ( Fernabsatzverträge) regarding withdrawals and returns do not apply (§ 312 para 4, No. 5 BGB). 4. The auctioneer receives a commission from the buyer of 20 % of the hammer price plus EUR 1,50 for each purchased lot. The buyer will be charged with the cost of postage, packing, insurance and the cost of import if necessary. Value added tax (currently 19 %) on the auctioneer’s commission and expenses together with value added tax on the hammer price (currently 19 %) if applicable will be invoiced separately. Supplies to Non-EU-Member States are exempted from VAT on commission, expenses and hammer price with presentation of relevant export documents. Supplies to EU customers outside Germany holding an EU VAT-ID-Number underly the “Reverse Charge-System”, i.e. for commissions and expenses the German VAT does not apply; the buyer is obliged to include the respective VAT in his/her VAT declaration in his/ her home country. 5. Bidders are obliged to take over lots knocked down to them. Invoices to room bidders are payable immediately, all other invoices are payable upon receipt. Invoices issued during or immediately after the auction are subject to review and possible amendments; errors reserved. Persons bidding for third parties should make this known to the auctioneer before the auction; otherwise they may be deemed to be the buyer. Lots remain the property of the seller until payment has been made in full which includes clearance of any cheques and payment of any bills of exchange. The buyer has no right to request delivery of any lots until payment has been made in full. 6. If payment is delayed interest will be charged at 1 % per month or part month. This interest rate may be adjusted if the auctioneer can prove that a higher rate or the buyer can prove that a lower rate is justified; the interest rate is at least 5 % higher than the basis interest rate per year.If the buyer fails to pay promptly or does not take up the lots, the auctioneer is entitled to demand flat-rate damages of 25 % of the

hammer price in compensation for forgone commission and for expenses incurred unless the buyer can prove that there is no damage or that the amount claimed is excessive. The auctioneer reserves the right to claim higher damages subsequently. 7. The dispatch of knocked-down lots on buyer’s request will be effected at his expense. If the buyer is a company, the risk will be transferred to the buyer as soon as the goods have been handed over for dispatch to the post office or another dispatch service. The auctioneer offers a transport insurance, the costs of which have to be born by the buyer. 8. All lots may be viewed and checked before the auction. Descriptions in the catalogue do not mean guarantees for quality and authenticity. The auctioneer is not liable for any defects of the items. He commits himself, however, to transmit without delay complaints about defects to the consignor. In case of reversed transaction the auctioneer will reimburse his commission to the buyer; any further claims to him are excluded. Claims relating to obvious defects must be received by the auctioneer within ten days of handing over or delivery. The auctioneer is entitled to require the buyer to obtain at his expense reports from two independent experts that substantiate the claims. No claims of any sort, in particular relating to quality and quantity may be made in respect of collections, accumulations and other large lots. Unless stated otherwise, quoted catalogue values are not binding. Lots already stated to contain faults cannot be returned by reason of further small faults. Defects which can be seen from illustrations (margins, perforations, cancellations, centering etc.) cannot be subject of complaints. No complaint will be considered if lots or stamps have been altered. Alterations include removal of hinges, hinge remainders or paper adhesions, immersion in water, treating with chemicals and the addition (or removal) of marks of any sort. If a lot is purchased subject to an expert opinion, the cost of which will be borne by the buyer, this expertising will be arranged by the auctioneer unless otherwise determined by the buyer. With bidding for stamps which have already been expertised or for stamps with certificates the bidder accepts the expert marks and certificates which are available for his guidance and inspection as decisive unless the bid is made subject to certification by any expert nominated by the bidder and approved by the auctioneer before the auction. Stamps which are clearly established as forgeries may be marked as such by experts. The auctioneer is entitled to request the buyer to refer all complaints directly to the seller. 9. These auction terms also apply to subsequent sales after auction; the special provisions for distance sales do not apply. 10. Place of fulfillment for either party shall be Wiesbaden; any disputes arising shall be referred to the court having jurisdiction in Wiesbaden under German law. 11. No oral variations to these conditions are valid; all alterations or additions must be in writing. 12. Should one of the above conditions be unworkable in whole or in part, the validity of the other conditions will remain unaffected. Current as of August 2016 (This translation of the „Allgemeine Versteigerungsbedingungen“ is ­provided for information only; the German text is to be taken as ­authoritative).

Informationen zur Umsatzsteuer · Tax (VAT) Information Umsatzsteuer in Höhe von 19% auf unsere Provision und Nebenkosten (nicht auf den Zuschlagspreis) werden allen inländischen und EU-Käufern ohne UID in Rechnung gestellt. Lieferungen in Drittländer sind gegen Vorlage des Ausfuhrnachweises von der USt. auf die Provision, auf Spesen und Losgebühr befreit. Lieferungen an Abnehmer aus anderen EU-Ländern mit UID-Nr. erfolgen unter Anwendung des Reverse Charge-Verfahrens, d.h. die Provision, die Spesen und die Losgebühr unterliegen nicht der Deutschen USt.; der Käufer ist in diesen Fällen verpflichtet, die USt. in seiner USt.-Erklärung in seinem Heimatland anzugeben. Bei mit einem Kreis (°) an der Losnummer gekennzeichneten Losen fallen zusätzlich zu der Umsatzsteuer auf die Provision 19% Umsatzsteuer auf den Zuschlagspreis an. Diese 19% USt. werden Händlern in der EU (außerhalb Deutschlands) mit einer UID-Nr. nicht berechnet. Auch bei Käufern außerhalb der Europäischen Union entfällt die Berechnung dieser USt., sofern der Export der Ware nachgewiesen wird. Im Inland ansässigen Händlern mit UID-Nr. wird diese USt. zwar berechnet. Diese kann jedoch im Rahmen der Umsatzsteuererklärung als Vorsteuer geltend gemacht werden.

19% Value Added Tax (VAT) on commissions and expenses (not on the hammer price) will be invoiced to all domestic buyers and all buyers from EU countries without EU VAT-ID number. Supplies to non-EU-Member States are exempted from VAT on commission and expenses with presentation of relevant export documents. Supplies to EU customers outside Germany holding an EU VAT-ID underly the „Reverse Charge-System“, i.e. for commissions and expenses the German VAT does not apply; the buyer is obliged to include the respective VAT in his/her VAT declaration in his/her home country. For lots marked with a circle (°) next to the lot number an additional 19% VAT on the hammer price will be charged. This charge does not apply to dealers outside Germany and within the European Union with a turnover tax identification number. Nor does this tax apply to buyers outside the European Union. In these cases we must prove the export of the material. For lots marked with a dot (•) next to the lot number 7% import charges (not tax, non deductible) will be charged to all buyers within the European Union. Buyers outside the European Union will not be billed these import charges, provided export of the lots is proven.

Bei mit einem Punkt (•) an der Losnummer versehenen Losen fallen 7% Importspesen (nicht abzugsfähig) an, wenn die Käufer in der Europäischen Union ansässig sind. Käufern außerhalb der Europäischen Union werden diese Importspesen nicht berechnet, sofern der Export der Ware nachgewiesen wird.

WICHTIGE INFORMATION FÜR HÄNDLER: Lose ohne Kreis (°) können ohne Weiteres in die Differenzbesteuerung eingebracht und weiter verkauft werden. Dies gilt auch für die Lose mit einem Punkt (•). Die MwSt auf die Provision darf für Händler mit Vorsteuerabzug in der Regel als Vorsteuer geltend gemacht werden. Für weitere Informationen konsultieren Sie Ihren Steuerberater.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR DEALERS: All lots without a circle (°) can be integrated into the marginal system. This also relates to the lots with a dot (•). The VAT on the commission and expenses can possibly be subject to refund by the German tax authorities. For further information please consult your tax advisor.
