What country is this stamp from? And from which year?

Maximum three guesses per member. Quiz finishes in around 24 hours.

1 point for someone who guesses the year or the country right or 2 points for someone who guesses both.

Good luck and have fun!

It looks a bit primitive - like so many 19th century designs with portraits of monarchs or presidents. And I feel like I vaguely recognize it, so there's a good chance I own one.

Guess 1 - Great Britain

Guess 2 - One of the German states

Guess 3 - Italy

Surprisingly, it's none of them! What were your guesses of possible years to go with the countries you guessed?

"What were your guesses of possible years to go with the countries you guessed?"

I was thinking 1850s to 1860s with no specific date in mind

Thanks for your guesses everyone.

Chipshot is the closest one with Spain 1878... the country is right, and the year is very close... any guesses for the year?

Exactly!

Since Chipshot got the country and aolsson got the year to complete the combo, it's one point for Chipshot and 1 for aolsson.

Rules still need to be strengthened, but it's going well.

Points so far:

aolsson: 4

Nils Helstrom: 2

Chipshot: 1

Full picture coming soon.
