Bosnia and Herzegovina 120th Anniversary of Postage Stamps

Bosnia and Herzegovina · 1999 · 1.00 BAM

This stamp commemorates the 120th anniversary of the first postage stamps issued in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The design features a 'stamp-on-stamp' motif, reproducing the 1879 1 Kreuzer stamp which depicted the double-headed eagle of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

Issued in 1999 by the Muslim-Bosniak administration's postal service (BH Pošta), this stamp looks back at the region's postal history under Austro-Hungarian rule, which began in 1878.
