Serbia Prince Milan IV Obrenović
Serbia · 1869 · 10 para
This stamp features a left-facing portrait of Prince Milan IV Obrenović, the ruler of the Principality of Serbia. The design is enclosed within an ornate oval frame, with the denomination '10 ПАРА' inscribed below and Cyrillic text for 'SERBIA' and 'POST' at the top and sides. This issue is notable for being printed on thin, transparent paper and perforated.
Issued during the early reign of Prince Milan IV, this stamp represents a period of growing Serbian autonomy within the Ottoman Empire, just a few years before the country achieved full independence in 1878.
