That's a great set Rodney! Thanks for sharing it.  By the way, 1 leu = 1 lion, 2 lei = 2 lions. |

Thanks Nigel, I was pretty chuffed to get the 1L50 mauve !  You know, I hadn't realised Leu =Lion I think I have a stamp with 1 Lei ( 1 Lions) I'll have to search for it. To answer the original Poster...  and some other Currency info....  |

Those are beautiful Rod. I thought they looked like cindys, but found them in Scott's. I see they were only valid for postal use the three days of the exposition. Lovely set. |

I will wager that covers are scarce if they were only valid for the time of the exposition and considering that it was over a hundred years ago. |

A lovely Lass from Hateg, with a curious hairstyle. Rod, that looks like Die IA. You have to check the upper scale.  (Thanks to skilo for the scan.) |

What an extraordinary observance there Collin.
I thought I was in a Monty Python sketch there for a while.
