The image displays two stamps. The left stamp, an official issue, features a profile portrait of Adolf Hitler. The right stamp is a British propaganda counterfeit, depicting Hans Frank in a similar style. Both are denominated '20 Groszy'.

The official stamp represents the German occupation of Poland during World War II. The counterfeit highlights the psychological warfare employed by the Allies, targeting the Nazi regime's leadership.
