Libya Postage Due Stamp, Numeral in Ornate Frame

Libya · 1921 · 10c

This is the first postage due stamp issued for Libya under Italian administration. The design features the denomination '10' centrally located within an ornate, decorative frame, with the word 'SEGNATASSE' (Postage Due) at the top and 'LIBIA' at the bottom.

Issued in 1921, this stamp reflects the period of Italian colonial rule over Libya, which began in 1911. Postage due stamps were used to collect payment from the recipient for mail with insufficient postage.
