Small figures in the corners.
The values 5 and 20 øre exist in an early engravement with small figures of 5 and 20 in the corners. They are easy to recognize by the form of the letters in DANMARK and the lines around the three lions in the arms are connected to the crown. 10 øre was never issued in the first edition of "arms", but exist with small figures later in print 5. Only 3 of the sheets 100 stamps are with small figures. See illustration.
Små tal i hjørnerne
Værdierne 5 and 20 øre findes i en tidlig gravering med små tal i hjørnerne. Denne udgave kan også kendes på bogstaverne i DANMARK og på de lodrette linier omkring kronen i våbnet - linierne berører kronen. 10 øren udkom ikke i den første udgave af serien, men optræder senere i tryk 5, hvor tre af arkets 100 mærker er med små hjørnetal. Se illustration.

Større tal i hjørnerne
Senere udgaver har større tal i hjørnerne. Den ændrede gravering de kan også kendes på ændrede bogstaver i DANMARK og på de lodrette linier omkring kronen i våbnet - linierne berører ikke kronen. Se illustration.


Illustration with small figures in the corners to the left and bigger figures in the corners to the right.

The issue with small figures was replaced by the new engraved type in 1884 - but in later printings of the value 10 øre (print 5 - 1888) and 20 øre (print 9 to print 14 - 1888-1892) one or a few of the stamps in the sheet are with small figures.
