Used 19 June 1860
This 1.25Fr imprinted dimension revenue stamp appears on a legal contract dated 19 June 1860 from Weiswampach, written of course in the old German cursive script (Kurrentschrift). The four-page document (written on front and back of each page, so actually 8 pages) details the terms for a public auction of various real estate properties situated in and around Wilwerdange owned by Nicolas and Margaretha Molitor. The notary who conducted the auction was Nicolaus Delvaux.

Now, with Google's free artificial intelligence, lengthy documents like this can be summarized (and translated in their entirety, if all the details are needed) by A I in just a few minutes. Here is the first page of this document:
