Cambodia State Emblem and Map

Cambodia · 1951 · 1 Piastre

This stamp features the Royal Arms of Cambodia, which includes the Unalome symbol atop a sacred sword placed on phan trays, flanked by royal umbrellas. Below the emblem is a simplified map of the country, with the denomination '1p' prominently displayed.

Issued in 1951, this was the very first postage stamp of the newly independent Kingdom of Cambodia, marking its philatelic sovereignty after the end of the French protectorate.
