Thank you 22crows. I cannot explain, but this stamp has something about it I like. Common and valueless it may be, but I treasure it, 'collector syndrome'.
Scott and Yvert both list this as a Registration stamp from 1899, for the Colombian department/state of Antioquia. In Scott it is Antioquia F3; in Yvert it is timbres pour lettres recommandees #3.
Quote: was any writing required in space provided, if so, has anyone a correctly used one to show Please.
The writing in the space "No." is the post office registration number as entered by the postmaster. Unfortunately I have a bunch of used ones but no scanner.
