2004The Romanian Stamp Day (Imperforated and numbered) - First Day Cover

The first postage stamps were printed in 1840, in England and they were destined for the payment of postal services. As time went by, their simple purpose became more diversified. Still, their main function stayed the same. The first Romanian postage stamps were printed in Moldavia, on July 15th, 1858. They were the now famous first philatelic issue entitled “Auroch’s Head”, formed of four stamps.
