Poland, 1921 Coat of Arms Definitive

Poland · 1921 · 100 Mk

This definitive stamp features the Polish coat of arms, a crowned white eagle on a red shield. The design is framed by ornate scrollwork, with the country name 'POCZTA POLSKA' at the top and the denomination '100 Mk' (Marek) at the bottom. The eagle is a powerful and enduring symbol of the Polish nation.

Issued in 1921, this stamp was part of a definitive series released by the Second Polish Republic following its re-establishment of independence after World War I. The use of the national coat of arms symbolized the restored sovereignty and national pride of Poland during a period of hyperinflation.
