Libya 1970 Postage Stamp Day

Libya · 1970 · 10m

This stamp commemorates Postage Stamp Day in Libya. The design features a stamp-on-stamp motif, showcasing an earlier Libyan issue, the 1969 10m stamp depicting the Arch of Marcus Aurelius in Tripoli (Scott #371).

Issued in 1970, this stamp was released shortly after the 1969 coup d'état led by Muammar Gaddafi, which established the Libyan Arab Republic.
