Singapore · 1968 · $10

This high-value definitive stamp features the national Coat of Arms of Singapore. The design includes a shield with a crescent moon and five stars, supported by a lion and a tiger, with the national motto 'Majulah Singapura' (Onward Singapore) on a banner below. The stamp is printed in a distinct ultramarine color.

Issued just three years after Singapore's independence in 1965, this definitive series was one of the first to establish a unique national philatelic identity, replacing symbols of the British colonial era with national emblems.
