Belgium 1951 King Baudouin I

Belgium · 1951 · 1.75F

This definitive stamp features a left-facing portrait of the young King Baudouin I. The design is simple and elegant, focusing on the monarch's profile, with the country name 'BELGIQUE - BELGIE' at the top and the denomination '1F75' at the bottom.

Issued shortly after King Baudouin ascended to the Belgian throne in July 1951 following the abdication of his father, Leopold III. This was one of the first definitive series of his long reign.
