Thank you two! Now I know what I have is a 75 Kr valued fourth issue of 1 March 1870 of Austrain Revenue Adhesive. However the cancel date was 15/2/70 that I believe is Feb.15, 1870. It is two weeks early than issued date. Is it normal or possible in your view?

Hi,

In my view, normal - no, possible - yes. Postal administrations are usually picky as to when a stamp is to be allowed to be put on sale. That being said, if a post office (especially in a smaller town/village ran out of a particular stamp (in this case a 75 kr), the postmaster of that town/village would sometimes (without authorization) use a stamp that was near enough to its issue date.
