Iceland 1972 Fischer Spassky gold foil medal card

This commemorative card was issued by the Icelandic Chess Federation (Skáksamband Íslands) to mark the 1972 World Chess Championship match between Boris Spassky (USSR) and Bobby Fischer (USA) in Reykjavík.

The card includes the 15 kr stamp cancelled with Reykjavík postmarks dated 2.VII.1972 and 27.VII.1972 in the “HEIMSMEISTARAEINHVIGI Í SKÁK” cancellation. A philatelic and numismatic souvenir from the event.
