This is a 60 kopeek revenue stamp of 1887. It is listed in multiple catalogs, but probably the easiest one to get is J. Barefoot. Russia Revenues,
2004., page 6, #13. It should have hexagon- shaped watermark. There are two types of this stamp based on watermark orientation.
According to Barefoot:
- common stamp has vertical hexagons (catalog price - 1/2 pound).
- the stamp with horizontal hexagons is a scarce one. Catalog for it - 50 pounds (100 times more expensive!).
