Greece Flag Over Parthenon

Greece · 1978 · 14 ΔΡΧ

This definitive stamp features the national flag of Greece prominently waving over a stylized depiction of the Parthenon, an ancient temple on the Athenian Acropolis. The design combines two powerful national symbols, representing both modern Greek sovereignty and its classical heritage. The denomination is shown in the upper left corner.

Issued in 1978, this stamp was part of a definitive series released a few years after the restoration of democracy in Greece, following the collapse of the military junta in 1974. The imagery reinforces national pride and identity during this period of political renewal.
