"ΚΕΦΑΛΛΗΝΙΑ (110)*13 ΙΑΝ. 65. 1d. collected fee on reverse also marked. The combined use of these pmks is, so far, unique. This cover establishes the fact that Zante Post office personel hasted in using the Greek Postal service pmk (official introduction was 15 Jan. 1865) and is the earliest example of premature use of the Greek Postal service in Zante.
