This listing features a premium individual example of the classic Austrian Empire 1850 first-issue 9 Kreuzer blue definitive stamp. This specific stamp is printed on the smooth, machine-made thick paper variety introduced in the mid-1850s.
A significant highlight is the exceptional postal history on display, featuring a highly clear, historic PESTH circular town cancellation from pre-unification Budapest, Hungary. The stamp also boasts superb, wide margins on all four sides that do not touch or compromise the outer frameline design. Please inspect the high-resolution front scan to verify the superb centering, paper cleanliness, and crispness of the Hungarian postmark.
