Note
This is the denomination with the largest printing run. It replaced the 4-fillér stamp in the postcard mailing rates. All kinds of plate flaws occur, and a stamp booklet was also produced for this denomination. An imperforate copy is also known, even in postally used condition. Among the 'digit errors' forged from genuine stamps, the 5-fillér is known. The red 5-fillér is also known as another color forgery.
