The listing, Pope Dies - Vatican FDC, Rosary has ended.
GET IT NOW (GIN) for 25,000 credits before someone else does! Will be mailed next business day from one of those USPS blue mail boxes or from inside the Post Office.
I thought this would make a nice THEME auction to combine these two religious pieces:
Notice the postmark DATE: (Pope Pius XII)
CITA' DEL VATICANO POSTE: 21.10.58-9 (I think it reads 21st day of October 1958, I don't know what the number 9 represents, maybe the time of day?)
October 10, 1958: Death of Pope
Coat of Arms of the Holy See Symbol
This FDC is slick, shiny unlike many I've come across.
This FDC has THREE stamps on it.
(Keys in saltire surmounted by the papal tiara and depicts the keys as two,, interlaced at their intersection with a red (gules) cord. The tiara is represented as white with golden crowns.[1]
SEDE VACANTE (bottom left corner of FDC)
(An expression, used in the canon law of the Catholic Church, that refers to the vacancy of the episcopal see of a particular church.)
