('Cachet a barre' cancel)
The only cancel that I have seen on these stamps are the so-called 'Cachet a barre' cancels (or bar killer), used from 1849 to 1864. According to the information that Vincent Vriends send me, there are cachet a barre cancels with 8 bars (both vertical and horizontal), 10 thick bars, 14 bars and 17 bars. I know of the following numbers (with corresponding towns):
