(Tchilinghirian Type 3), with alongside Kizil registration cachet in violet. The reverse with arrival (22.1) c.d.s. Envelope roughly opened at top right not effecting the adhesives, overall light ageing not detracting from the importance of this registered cover, a very rare usage of the Russian stamps in Tuva after independence.
