Hungary 20 Filler Stamp, Agricultural Scene
This item is a vintage Hungarian postage stamp, featuring a denomination of '20 FILLER'. The stamp's primary color appears to be a muted dark brown or sepia tone, suggesting an older printing process or a specific color choice for the era. Physically, it is rectangular with perforated edges, typical of postage stamps, and is currently housed in what appears to be a stamp album or collection sheet, indicated by the dotted grid lines around it. The central image depicts an agricultural scene with at least two individuals, likely farmers or harvesters, working in a field of tall crops, possibly wheat or rye. One figure is more prominently visible on the right, kneeling or bending, while another is partially obscured on the left. The artistic style is somewhat monochromatic and illustrative, focusing on the details of the figures and the field. The text 'MAGYAR KIR. POSTA' is visible at the bottom of the stamp, which translates to 'Royal Hungarian Post', indicating its country of origin and a period when Hungary was a kingdom. The denomination '20' is present in two upper corners, with 'FILLER' written horizontally between them. The overall condition shows some signs of age, including potential discoloration or minor creasing, and it is lightly postmarked or has some faint ink marks on the bottom margin outside the stamp itself, including a handwritten 'ts'. The perforations appear largely intact, though the exact crispness is hard to ascertain from the image resolution. The specific style and historical text suggest an estimated age from the late 19th or early 20th century, consistent with the era of the Austro-Hungarian Empire or the early independent Kingdom of Hungary before major political changes. The craftsmanship is typical of mass-produced stamps while maintaining a detailed artistic engraving.
