Cundinamarca first issued fiscal stamps in 1859 (elliptic design with arms in center) in the values: 25 c, 50 c, 1P20 and 2P40 (all in black). A further incription 'Clase 1' for the lower value of 25 c to 'Clase 4' for the 2P40 value can be found on these stamps. Sorry, no picture available yet.
A new design appeared in 1860 with date indicated '1860 i 1861'
