Croatia Postage Due Stamp

Croatia · 1941 · 1 K

This is the first postage due stamp issued by the Independent State of Croatia. The design features a large numeral '1' indicating the value of 1 Kuna, set within an ornate frame. Above the numeral is the Croatian coat of arms, and the text 'PORTOMARKA' (Postage Due) is inscribed at the bottom.

Issued in 1941, this stamp marks the establishment of the Independent State of Croatia (NDH), a puppet state of Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy during World War II, and the introduction of its new currency, the Kuna.
