The Baden 9 Kreuzer Error is the most famous and most valuable stamp to ever come out of Germany, and only four known copies of this stamp exist.
What exactly is so special about this stamp?
This stamp was originally produced in Baden, a German state, in 1851. Baden 9 Kreuzer Error has a face value of 9-Kreuzer, but the thing is, 9-Kreuzer stamps were meant to be colored pink. 6-Kreuzer stamps are the ones that are supposed to be printed in green.
These postage stamps are some of the first to ever come out of Baden, and the green error version of the stamps are highly valuable.
Only four of these green stamps are known to exist, and an unused version sold at auction in 2008 for over a million euros.
