Bosnia and Herzegovina 1917 Emperor Karl I Definitives Set

Bosnia and Herzegovina · 1917 · 3 Heller to 10 Krone

This set of 18 definitive stamps features a profile portrait of Emperor Karl I, the last Emperor of Austria and King of Hungary. Each stamp is printed in a different color, with varying denominations ranging from Heller to Krone, framed by an ornate border.

Issued during World War I, these stamps reflect Bosnia and Herzegovina's status as an annexed territory of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. They were released shortly before the empire's collapse and the subsequent formation of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes.
