King Zvonimir, Postage Due
Croatia · 1941 · 2 K
This postage due stamp features a portrait of Demetrius Zvonimir, who was the King of Croatia and Dalmatia from 1075 until his death in 1089. The design is simple, focusing on the monarch's profile within an ornate frame, with the denomination '2 K' (Kuna) prominently displayed.
Issued in 1941 by the Independent State of Croatia (NDH), a World War II-era puppet state of Germany and Italy. The use of historical figures like King Zvonimir was intended to legitimize the new state by connecting it to Croatia's medieval past.
