Reverse with WIEN arrival (Oct 22) cds. Lightest horizontal trace just mentioned for accuracy, a most attractive cover. Signed Raybaudi & Avanzo; cert. E. Diena (1987) Ferchenbauer = € 850.rnNote: A most interesting item two days after the introduction of the unified Levant rates which was 10 soldi from the United Principalities and Albania to Austria with 5 s. for the Levant and 5 s. for Austria. This reduction in postage was however not known to the sender who paid 15 s. for the Levant and 5 s. for Austria, a rate which was in force only between January and October 1866. Alternatively this could have bee a double rate cover with twice 10 soldi in the new tariff.Ausruf : 300 CHFZuschlag : 900 CHF
