    1858 (July 21): Bull's Heads 27 parale black on rose laid paper, an example with fair to good margins, fresh colours, cancelled by two part strikes of "BERLAD / MOLDOVA ./8" datestamp in blue (Kiriac fig. 272). Only five examples of the 27 pa. are recorded in the Heimbüchler handbooks used from Berlad with this stamp being a new find.
