Note
The release and printing numbers refer to the 6-fillér stamps collectively. There are no precise individual data for each specific color. The first edition stamps could easily be confused with higher denominations of a similar color, so a new color was introduced. Ultimately, the last olive-greenish shade accompanied this denomination until the 1913 vintage. Plate flaws occur. The brown-toned 6-fillér stamps were also printed on thick, cardboard-like paper. We do not know of the violet-brown 6-fillér with 11½ perforation. Imperforate copies also occur.
