The 1870 set engraved by eugenio julia,
does this feature an allegory of "Spain"
or is it an image of Queen Isabella?

This stamp bears the 3 horizontal lines
consistent with Spanish "remainders" stamps.
I cannot find it anywhere, it appears to me to be
the Duke of Aosta.

Sir Rodney,

here You can find some information for the second one:

Michel does not list this item, so I think, it is a nonissued item.

I saw this stamp, and others, often.

kind regards
