Montenegro 1893 Prince Nicholas I 2 novčić

Montenegro · 1893 · 2 novčić

This stamp features a left-facing portrait of Prince Nicholas I of Montenegro, who ruled the country for over 50 years. The design is enclosed within an ornate oval frame, with the denomination '2' in the lower corners and Cyrillic text at the top. The stamp is printed in a distinctive yellow-brown color.

Issued during the Principality of Montenegro under the long reign of Nicholas I, this definitive series replaced earlier issues and was used for postage during a period of relative peace and modernization before the Balkan Wars.
