The way that franking labels work, is that you choose the value which is then printed on the label. The illustrations are printed sequentially, so you cannot choose the motifs yourself. As this series only have 3 different designs, choosing 3 labels, will spit all 3 designs.
 
The franking labels can be ordered in values from DKK 0.25 up to DKK 99.75 at increments of DKK 0.25 therefore these labels can be found bearing 398 different values.
