Item Description

Key Features:

Authentic Kingdom of Sardinia stamps issued from 1851 onward

Complete set of 12 distinct examples, with excellent variety in shades, papers and cancel types

All stamps clearly postmarked with CDS cancels (circular date stamps)

Includes multiple denominations: 5c, 10c, 20c, and 40c

Rich palette of early Italian typographic printing, with vibrant colors still present

An exceptional study group for the specialist or advanced collector

Historical Context:
The Kingdom of Sardinia played a pivotal role in the unification of Italy. These stamps were printed before the proclamation of the Kingdom of Italy, making them historically significant. The embossed portrait of King Victor Emmanuel II was used across multiple values, and these cancellations help track the movement of mail during a key time in European history.

Condition:
All 12 stamps are used, with full CDS cancels as shown. Centering, margins, and preservation vary as expected for issues this old. A few have minor faults typical of the period. No reproductions or forgeries included.

Collector's Note:
This is a rich lot for research or exhibition. The stamps are increasingly hard to find with readable cancels and intact embossing. Catalog value is high, with considerable upside potential.

Shipping & Handling:
Ships securely in a protective sleeve via international registered airmail. We combine shipping on multiple orders. Items will be declared as "Documents - No Commercial Value" unless otherwise requested.
