Bosnia and Herzegovina 1910 Emperor Franz Joseph I Definitive Series

Bosnia and Herzegovina · 1910 · Various (1 Heller to 10 Kronen)

This definitive series features a portrait of Emperor Franz Joseph I of Austria-Hungary, facing right. The design is framed by ornate architectural elements, with the country's name "BOSNIEN-HERCEGOVINA" inscribed at the top. The stamps were issued in various denominations and colors to cover different postal rates.

Issued two years after the formal annexation of Bosnia and Herzegovina by the Austro-Hungarian Empire in 1908, these stamps replaced earlier issues and asserted imperial authority through the monarch's portrait.
