Does anyone know the size on these Netherlands Telegraphs stamps? They where issued 1877-1903. They might have the same size as those from Belgium, witch I have some of?  |

I don't know the size of the stamps , but based on the below web site, which I use for Telegraph stamps, the cancelation hole is said to be 5mm in diameter. Your scan seems to be just about the actual size of the stamp, so my guess would be around 27 mm for the stamp design. Again, this is a guess! gb-precancels.org/Telegraphs/World/index-Nd.htmlFDI |
