    Austrian Post Offices 1864: Arms 2 s. yellow, perf. 9½, a single example and two horizontal pairs, well embossed and in a brilliant bright shade, tied to cover front by three clear strikes of "GIURGEVO" circular datestamp (June 10) cds in black (Tchilinghirian fig. 748). An extremely rare usage of the 2 soldi adhesive in Giurgevo, Tchilinghirian did not record a single example, even off cover, in his handbook. Ferchenbauer illustrates this item on page 580 of his catalogue and gives 'LP' for a franking of five 2 s. adhesives on cover.rnSuperbly attractive and very rare.rnNote: 10 soldi rate from the Danubian Principalities to Austria after October 15, 1866. Thus this item must have been sent in June 1867, when Giurgevo belonged to the Hungarian Postal administration. rnProvenance: Collection Provera, Corinphila 271, 10 June 2021, lot 6091.
