A classic postage-due issue from the Régence de Tunis, this 2 centimes Chiffre-Taxe stamp features a finely engraved vignette of a traditional Tunisian female head within an ornamental frame. Printed in a rich black shade on buff paper, it represents the early French-influenced fiscal-postal administration of Tunisia before full protectorate issues became standardized. The Arabic inscriptions, crescent-and-star emblems, and distinctive typography make it a sought-after addition for specialists of North African philately and classic due-mail markings. An attractive example of early Tunisian revenue/postage-due design.
