Europe. Ancient Postal Routes

On April 9, 2020, the Romanian Post issued two postage stamps as part of the Europe series dedicated to Ancient Postal Routes.

The postage stamp with a denomination of 1.90 lei depicts postal couriers and the stamp of the Roman post station from 1840; the background is a map of Moldova showing the main postal routes. A postage stamp with a face value of 20.50 lei depicts a postal carriage and the stamp of a post office in Wallachia, with a map of the network of postal roads in the principality in the background.
