Yes, it was a fee imposed by the respective post office to tax a mailed item, therefore it is a stamp. |

Not Australia, but AUSTRIA.
The newspaper stamps are listed near the end of the Austria listings, after the regular postage stamps.
Your stamp is either #P11 or #P11a.
It's hard to tell from the pic, but it doesn't look like your stamp has varnish bars (diagonal bars a few millimeters wide, looks a little like a strip of glazed surface if you hold the stamp at an angle under a light). If no varnish bars, then #P11. If you see varnish bars, then #P11a. |

Hi Wert,
I am pleased that you found the ID of this stamp.
Can you please change the title of your post to reflect this Austrian Newspaper (P11) stamp?
Thanks, -stamporator |
