P274-Italy 1964 Europa CEPT 40 Lire Used Stamp Stylized Flower Poste Italiane

P274-Italy 1964 Europa CEPT 40 Lire Used Stamp Stylized Flower Poste Italiane

£100.00Price

This looks like Italy, Europa (CEPT) issue, 1964, 40 lire, the stylized flower design from the Italian set catalogued as Michel 1164/1165 for the pair. An eBay listing for this issue identifies it as “Italy 1964 Europa CEPT Stylized Flower 1164/65” and shows the year as 1964.

From your photos, this example appears to be used / postmarked, with ordinary wear, slightly uneven perforations at a few corners, and a typical used back with no original gum expected because it has been postally used. The cancel is visible across the face, which confirms it is not mint. Based on catalogue-style pricing for ordinary used Italian 1960s commemoratives and live retail asking prices for the set, a single used 40 lire stamp like this is usually a low-value common stamp, roughly £0.25 to £1 in this condition, with many sellers grouping it into sets or mixed lots rather than selling it alone. StampWorld lists very modest used values for comparable 1960s Italian commemoratives, and current eBay asking prices for the two-stamp 1964 Europa set are also low.
