Description: This horizontal, rectangular stamp from Bolivia carries a face value of 5 Bolivianos, denoted by the bold "5 Bs." printed within white geometric frames in both upper corners. The central graphic features a detailed landscape of a calm river system, framed by a slender palm tree on the left and broad tropical leaves on the right to represent the Amazonian ecology. The upper margin displays the country name "BOLIVIA" directly above the legislative text "LEY DE 11 DE DICIEMBRE DE 1944." Spanning across the base is a wide rectangular block inscribed with "CENTENARIO DE LA CREACION DEL DEPARTAMENTO DEL BENI" to mark the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Department of Beni. Rendered entirely in a striking reddish-orange monochrome ink, the bottom margin concludes with the printing imprint "TALL. OFFSET LA PAZ."
