Russia 7 Kopek Imperial Eagle on Cover

Russia · 1898 · 7 kopek

The stamp features the Imperial Russian double-headed eagle with a shield on its chest, surmounted by crowns. The denomination '7 kopek' is indicated below the eagle.

This stamp was part of the long-running Imperial Russian definitive series, widely used across the vast Russian Empire during a period of significant social and political change leading up to the 1905 revolution. Its use on a cover from St. Petersburg in 1898 reflects everyday postal communication in the late Tsarist era.
