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-white light.

 

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 - you will see a bright drawing of the stamp in a white or yellow-white colour. If the stamp is on paper without fluorescence the stamp looks dull and greyish. To observe the stamps for fluorescence - it is best done in dark environment.

 

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 - and stamps sold around Århus in the following years were on paper with fluorescence, while they were on normal paper in the rest of the country. Most stamps released in the years 1962 to the beginning of 1967 can be found on both types of paper. After 1967 it is only the most used stamps that are made on normal paper. The last stamp that was produced on two types of paper is 100 øre red Margrethe II - see 76-14.

 

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.
