Hungary 5 Fillér, Harvesters Issue

Hungary · 1900 · 5 Fillér

This stamp features an allegorical design known as the 'Harvesters'. It depicts two figures, a man and a woman, in traditional attire reaping a field of wheat with scythes, symbolizing Hungary's agricultural strength. The denomination '5' is prominently displayed, with 'MAGYAR KIR. POSTA' (Hungarian Royal Post) inscribed above.

Issued at the turn of the 20th century, this definitive series replaced the previous coat of arms design and was part of a broader effort to create nationalistic imagery during the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
