Lot 30251 – 1862, 6par red, large margins, cancelled by a blue

1862, 6 par red, large margins, cancelled by a blue double circular « Plasa De Sus Dist. Neamtu » with a manuscript date « 22.8 » inserted into the centre, a guaranteed genuine strike of this rural postmark; the stamp seems to have been used outside of its validity and its cover was probably treated with postage due; rural cancellations are major rarities on the 1862 issues.
