Manuscrito - Año 1638

Manuscrito - Año 1638

Magnificent original manuscript from the year 1638 (the second year of the introduction of the Stamp Duty/Sealed Paper by King Philip IV). Second Seal (68 Maravedís): Imprint of the rare and coveted Second Seal with a circular decorative border, reserved for documents of great value and royal court dispatches. It retains a degree of sharpness in the matrix and the royal coat of arms is simply impeccable. Calligraphic Art: An impressive 17th-century chancery penmanship, filled with fine flourishes, ribbons, and period caligraphic strokes. Royal Issuance: Dated in Madrid March 13, 1638 and countersigned by the King's Secretary, Matías Fernández Corella. A work of art in paleography, diplomatics, and fiscal philately of the 17th century. Ideal for collectors, lovers of old paper and history, and also for those who want to decorate a charming space. Excellent piece, carefully selected. Original from the period. Excellent piece with no reserve price. Great opportunity.
