Italy / Marca da Bollo 0,50 l – Vale come francobollo – MNH stamp
The Marca da Bollo in Italy is a special type of revenue stamp used for various official documents and acts. It is similar to a postage stamp but serves the purpose of validating public documents and acts, such as notarial deeds, declarations, and passports. In Italy, these stamps have been in use since 1863 and are typically sold in tobacco shops or authorized public establishments. “Vale come francobollo” translates to “valid as a postage stamp.” This means that the particular Marca da Bollo you have can also be used as a postage stamp for sending mail, which is a feature that was available for certain revenue stamps in Italy. These stamps often serve a dual purpose: they can be used to pay a tax or fee on a document, and in some cases, they can also be used to pay for postage. This dual functionality can be especially useful for businesses and individuals who need to send documents and ensure they are properly authenticated and taxed.
