Flourescence
Danish stamps on fluorescent paper.
Some Danish stamps can be found on paper with fluorescence.
Fluorescence is used on stamps made on special paper, which has the ability to reflect
light not visible to the human eye. The reflected light is seen as a white or yellow-
To detect if a stamp is on paper with fluorescence, you can use a lamp with ultraviolet
light. The ultraviolet light shall be reflected from the stamp if it is fluorescent
-
The purpose of using paper with fluorescence is that the reflection of the light can be used in machines to turn the letter in the right position for cancellation.
In Denmark the production of stamps with fluorescence began in 1962. As paper with
fluorescence was a little more expensive than normal paper, there was a test period
when stamps were produced on both types of paper. The test with fluorescence happened
in Århus from the end of 1962 -
The chart below notes Danish stamps that is found on both types of paper. The first two columns shows the price for normal paper, the last two columns shows the price on paper with fluorescence
Examples on stamps cancelled in Århus is shown below. Prices for correct cancelled in Århus can be higher than prices given here.
