1859, “BUKAREST OTPR(avleno) 8 MAIYA” Cyrillic two-line (Tchilinghirian Type 4), a very fine strike of the despatch mark on reverse of an envelope from “KRONSHTADT APRIL 1859”, addressed to the ruler of Moldavia and Wallachia, Prince Alexandru Ioan Cuza. Slight toning, otherwise very fine. A delightful, historically significant, and rare item.
