Here is a stamp with this precancel. http://stamps.luxcentral.com/postmar...recancel.2.jpg This precancel type was used from 1908 to 1925. Two lines: "Luxembourg" on the top line and the last two digits of the year on the bottom. So your stamp was precanceled in 1912. Blair |

Thanks to you both. I had assumed the 12 was 12c not the year !
