Diena (1991) Ferchenbauer = € 5'250.rnNote: A very late use of the Arms issue which could be used until the end of August 1869. The normal post-1865 routing for a letter from the Levant to Italy was via Corfu and Brindisi with an Italian vessel resulting in a rate of 28 soldi. The sender paid this rate but did not endorse the route. In this case the journey via Trieste was chosen.
