Hungarian Postage Stamp (Issued 1935)

This item is a used Hungarian postage stamp, identifiable by the text 'MAGYARORSZAG' (Hungary) at the bottom. The stamp appears to be a carmine red or deep red color, with a central design that is largely obscured by a prominent black circular postmark. The postmark indicates a date of '935 NOV 12.1', suggesting it was used on November 12, 1935. The denomination '70 F' (Fennig) is visible on the lower left portion of the stamp, indicating its postal value. The stamp has perforated edges, which appear somewhat uneven, suggesting it was torn from a sheet. The overall condition shows significant wear as a result of its use in postal service. The large, heavy postmark covers a substantial portion of the stamp's design, which is a common characteristic of used stamps but can diminish aesthetic appeal and collector value if it obscures key design elements. The paper appears to be of standard thickness for postage stamps of that era, and there are no immediately discernible tears or significant creases beyond the typical handling associated with mailed items. The age is clearly established by the visible postmark. No specific maker's marks are visible beyond the country and denomination, which are standard for government-issued postage.
