Denmark 5 Ore Christian X Postage Stamp

This item is a vintage Danish postage stamp, featuring a portrait of King Christian X. The stamp is predominantly green and white, typical of early 20th-century philately, with a rectangular shape and perforated edges. The central design showcases a circular vignette with a bust portrait of King Christian X, identifiable by his military uniform, spectacles, and characteristic mustache. Above the portrait, the word "DANMARK" is printed in block letters, indicating its country of origin. Below the portrait, the denomination "5 ORE" is clearly visible, flanked on both sides by the numeral "5" enclosed in a circular frame. The overall design features an intricate border with decorative elements. The stamp appears to be in used condition, suggested by a barely visible cancellation mark over the king's face, though it's faint and does not obscure the details significantly. The perforations are intact, and the edges show minimal wear. The paper appears slightly aged, consistent with stamps from its era. The quality of printing is fine, with clear lines and good detail in the portrait, suggesting professional craftsmanship. This stamp likely dates from the early to mid-20th century, specifically the period of Christian X's reign (1912-1947).
