Luxembourg Postage Due Stamp, Numerals in Oval

Luxembourg · 1907 · 10c

This stamp is part of Luxembourg's first series of postage due stamps, issued in 1907. The design features the numeral '10' for the 10 centimes denomination, prominently displayed within an ornate oval frame. The text 'LUXEMBOURG' appears at the top, and 'A PERCEVOIR' (To Collect) is inscribed at the bottom, indicating its function.

Postage due stamps were used by postal services to collect payment for mail that was sent with insufficient postage. This series marked the formalization of this process in Luxembourg's postal system in the early 20th century.
