For the green five-ring, mixtures of chrome yellow and berlin blue and some cobalt blue were used. Edition: 1 4,151,500, 5 öre. The marks were produced without a watermark (only in the sheet margins). Invalid for franking from o. M. On december 30, 1910. The stamp in the picture is from the postmuseum's collections. Date: 1858.
