Paraguay Postage Due Stamp, Green

Paraguay · 1904 · 5c (Centavos)

This stamp is a postage due issue from Paraguay, designed for collecting insufficient postage from the recipient. The design is purely functional, featuring a large numeral '5' indicating the value, surrounded by ornate scrollwork and the country's name. The word 'MULTA' (fine or penalty) is prominently displayed at the bottom.

Issued in the early 20th century, this stamp represents a standard postal function of the era. Postage due stamps were a common necessity worldwide before prepayment of all postage became universal.
