Montenegro Prince Nicholas I Definitive

Montenegro · 1893 · 2 novčića

This definitive stamp features a left-facing portrait of Prince Nicholas I of Montenegro. The design is framed by an ornate oval, with the denomination '2' in the lower corners and Cyrillic text at the top and bottom. This issue was part of a series that served as the primary postage for the Principality of Montenegro in the late 19th century.

Issued during the reign of Prince Nicholas I, this stamp reflects a period of growing Montenegrin statehood and independence from the Ottoman Empire, culminating in its recognition as a kingdom in 1910.
