Bosnia and Herzegovina 1906 Postage Due Stamp

Bosnia and Herzegovina · 1906 · 1 Heller

This is the first postage due stamp issued for Bosnia and Herzegovina under Austro-Hungarian administration. The design is purely typographic, featuring the denomination '1 HELLER' prominently within an ornate, rectangular frame, with 'PORTO' inscribed at the top to indicate its function for collecting postage owed.

Issued during the Austro-Hungarian administration of Bosnia and Herzegovina, this stamp reflects the standardized postal systems being implemented across the empire before the formal annexation in 1908.
