Another cover with no postmark, also coming from Scandinavia. Could it be that cancelations are no longer used in Finland and Sweden?
Anyway, Nina, whom I thank for the lovely handmade envelope she used to send me a postcrossing postcard (postcard # 11) mailed it from Helsinki, Finland's capital.
The stamp without any facial value imprinted can be used, as far as I grasp, for domestic postage and was issued on 28APR2021.
Quoting from the Finnish post website: "In April, Posti will also issue the Day of Celebration stamp that is suitable for many kinds of congratulatory messages. The stamp will also celebrate Klaus Welp’s long career as a stamp designer, as it is the 100th stamp designed by Welp."
To complete the postage for international expedition, a 0,10@ stamp was used. This is part of a 4 set stamp issued on 09MAY2017, dedicated to artic birds. The 4 stamps were also issued included in a souvenir sheet.
the birds depicted were: 0,10€ - Long-tailed duck (Clangula hyemalis): 0,20€ - Velvet Scoter (Melanitta fusca); domestic (no facial value) - Brent goose (Branta bernicla); domestic (no facial value) - Barnacle goose (Branta leucopsis).
