STAMP I CAN NOT IDENTIFY | Collectors Weekly

I CAME ACROSS THIS STAMP - BUT I CAN NOT IDENTIFY IT - WITH THE POSTAL CANCELLATION I THINK IT MIGHT BE GERMAN.

IT UNPERFORAMTED - HAS NO VALUE LISTED AND NO LETTERING - THE POSTAL MARK APPEARS TO BE THE BEST WAY TO IDENTIFY ITS ORIGINS.

ANY INFORMATION WILL BE HELPFUL

THANKS

It is Austrian - a head of Mercury imperforate stamp from 1867.

It is one of the stamps discussed here :

Thanks so much for your research and reply - it is indeed the stamp you mention - and including the link to a discussion of the stamp is extremely helpful.

I greatly appreciate it/

Thanks Valentino97 - I did remember to thank Kevin - but in my excitement to research the stamp's value - I forgot to mark the mystery solved - which it definitely was.

So thanks your reminder is much appreciated
