Cover from Romania, posted in Târnăveni on December 24, 2008.
This nice cover from my Romanian friend has attached the Christmas stamp, which was issued on November 5, 2008. The stamp (face value 1 leu) was issued in sheets of 8 stamps + 1 label in the centre. In addition a limited edition (7550 sheets) with silver foil was issued.
The two right stamps are of the third part of the series “Romanian pottery”, which was issued on November 24, 2005.
Thank you for this nice cover!

The cover is a postal stationery commemorating the 30th anniversary of the maritime museum in Constanţa, which was established in 1969.
The three additional stamps are depicting the minerals agate (a quartz variety of volcanic origin) and fluorite (composed of calcium fluoride).
