Kronstadt arrival cds (July 16) on reverse. One stamp with vertical crease, the other with surface scuff, but rare on the Soldi issue, rarer still on a Kreuzer value - just three known covers with the Plojestie cancellation struck in black; this cover unique with this rare cancellation on the Austrian Kreuzer issue adhesives.
