My grasp of Cyrillic is weak, but ,when it's a bit fuzzy, even weaker. Can anybody guess where this Serbian stamp was canceled?

Dear EdziuMM

It looks very much like #1091;#1087;#1091;#1090;#1085;#1080;#1094;#1072; to me. Not that I can write or read Serbian. But what I have discovered by typing out the individual Cyrillic letters is that it may not be a place but the word postal order (see also https://www.posta.rs/cir/stanovnist...ka-uputnica).

Best regards from Switzerland
André

Edit:
Sorry: In the preview the Cyrillic letters were visible, after posting there are only funny numbers...

The two of you are right on. If the word is "uputnitsa," Google translates that as "money order." Thank you both!
