Postage Due, Black Numeral on Red Background

North Macedonia · 1993 · 1 denar

This is a postage due stamp, designed for collecting insufficient postage from the recipient. The design is purely functional, featuring a large black numeral '1' indicating the value, set against a solid red background. The country name 'МАКЕДОНИЈА' (Macedonia) is printed at the top, with the currency 'ДЕНАР' (Denar) and the word 'ПОРТО' (Postage) at the bottom.

Issued shortly after North Macedonia's independence from Yugoslavia in 1991, this stamp was part of the new nation's first series of definitive and functional postal issues, establishing its own postal system.
