Netherlands 1930 Queen Wilhelmina

Netherlands · 1930 · 12½c

This definitive stamp features a left-facing portrait of Queen Wilhelmina of the Netherlands. The design, created by Jan Veth, is notable for its simple elegance, with the Queen's profile set against a plain background, framed by the country name 'NEDERLAND' at the top and the denomination '12½ CENT' at the bottom.

Issued during the interwar period, this series of definitive stamps featuring Queen Wilhelmina was in common use for postage throughout the 1930s, a time of economic challenges leading up to World War II.
