I've had this stamp slightly longer than forever and have never been able to Identify it. I'd appreciate any help.

At least there are two existing :)

But there was no answer either. Perhaps you could upload a scan in high resolution or detail photo, what about the printing quality?

(so I don't know anything about it)

The other one is in blue and mine is in black. Interesting?

The one in the other thread seems to me to be a pen-and-ink drawing. This one looks like a slightly different version of the same, but it's too blurred to be sure.

Could they be preliminary essays for an unissued stamp?

The inscription of Belgique but not Belgie would perhaps date it around the 1870s or 1880s.
