Estonia, 1928, Coat of Arms (Three Lions)

Estonia · 1928 · 5 senti

This definitive stamp features the national coat of arms of Estonia, which consists of three blue lions passant guardant on a golden shield. The design is a classic representation of Estonian national identity, with the denomination '5 senti' and country name 'EESTI' inscribed. The simple yet strong design was part of a long-running series used for everyday postage.

Issued during the first period of Estonian independence (1918-1940), this stamp series symbolized the nation's sovereignty and heritage before its occupation during World War II.
