AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Emission from Bordeaux 10 centimes brown type A, two units (left stamp with short left margin) canceled by the diamond with large digits 3982 on a letter from Toulouse to Mulhouse in the occupied zone. The letter was therefore taxed at 20 centimes. On the front, the postmark with the departure date from Mulhouse, August 28, 1871, and on the back the postmarks with date of passage and arrival. Very beautiful and very rare piece
