Sharjah & Dependencies - Postage Due

Name: Sharjah & Dependencies - Postage Due
Brand: Sharjah

Sharjah · 1965 · 10 NP

This is a postage due stamp from Sharjah, one of the Trucial States that would later form the United Arab Emirates. The design is simple and functional, featuring the denomination '10 NP' (Naye Paise) prominently in the center within an ornate frame. The country name is inscribed in both Arabic and English.

Issued in 1965, this stamp reflects the period before the formation of the UAE in 1971, when individual emirates like Sharjah issued their own stamps. The use of Naye Paise indicates the currency linkage to the Indian Rupee at the time.
