    10 bani orange-yellow, a fine used example with four margins, trifle age stained at upper right, used on strengthened cover to Braila (Farranga correspondence) tied by bold strike of CALAFAT / SERA datestamp (4/10) in blue (Kiriac fig.447) with framed "P.D." alongside. Whilst not marked "Cu Vaporu" (by Ship), the cover would have travelled down the Danube via a D.D.S.G. vessel, with reverse showing Braila arrival cds (6/10) in black. A fine and scarce cover.
