Bosnia and Herzegovina Postage Due Stamp

Bosnia and Herzegovina · 1916 · 2 Heller

This is a postage due stamp, indicated by the large numeral '2' signifying the amount to be paid by the recipient. The design is simple and functional, featuring the denomination prominently within an ornamental frame, with 'PORTO' at the top and the currency 'HELLER' at the bottom. The text 'BOSNIEN-HERZEGOWINA' confirms its origin.

Issued in 1916 during the Austro-Hungarian administration of Bosnia and Herzegovina, this stamp reflects the postal system of the era. Postage due stamps were used to collect insufficient postage from the mail recipient.
