Austro-Hungarian (Austria-Hungary) Empire Postmarks

thank you blaamand iam adding better scan wandering if its 67 or 74 issue and just pointed out few spots using black line where iam not sure about mybe its nothing opinions are very welcome thanks

You're most welcome.
I'm at a hotel without any catalogs etc available, but my gut feeling tell me your stamp is from the first issue - coarse printing. Particularly Kaiser Joseph's beard seems quite heavy. I just love those classic engravings, beautiful stamps

If I remember tomorrow I will check I have the book with all Hungarian cancels on Austrian stamps.

I agree with Leopoldstadt, and a coarse printing. The missing portion could be a plate flaw (there are many on this issue).

Here is a recent find, Zengg, which was in Croatia-Slavonia. It took me a while to locate the town - I originally thought it was Zenog.



Now Zengg is Senj, in Croatia.

Well I don't find Lipótváros cancel in the G.S. Ryan book, it was probably with Buda cancel anyway it will be Lipótváros not Leopoldstadt . I don't know why they call it a neighborhood , it's in the center of Budapest and it's where is the parliament. ( Budapest was formed mainly of 2 cities Buda and Pesth ( Pest )

So the cancel as to be Leopoldstadt in Austria, ( that's make it less interesting .... )

The Zengg cancel seem perfectly original.

Area66 - good information

Yeah thanks area66. Does your book say how long the cancel was used?

thank you all you've been far too kind

it's probably me and my lake of experience where I miss the relation between leopoldstadt and lipotvaros from the similarity point of each postmark I find these on the net also noticed the lipotvaros has got line under the day date this doesnt occurs in the leopoldstadt one same as in my example

sorry forgot to add this leopoldstadt postmark too where day date numbers are under letters lds probably similar to my example

Yes, I will post it tomorrow, I have to go work now

BeeSee at first I tough your stamps was a Type II with a Type I frame, then I save it and enlarge it and discover the break in the line , so it's a Type II frame..... a Type II with Type I is list $ 38, so bad

SO your stamps is 1859 , the stamp have less value than a type I 1858 , but the cancel will have 50% more valueif complete


so bad those small break...

I'm surprised I can't find what/where is oscon. I also wonder what the double circle one is?
