Treasure detail

Curaçao Queen Wilhelmina Definitive

Under Review

Description: The vertical format stamp displays a monochromatic reddish-purple or lilac graphic presentation focused entirely on a fine line-engraved bust profile of Queen Wilhelmina of the Netherlands. Her hair is elegantly pinned up to support the delicate royal crown, and her collar is detailed with a crisp white formal neckline. The name of the territory, "CURAÇAO," is printed cleanly in a sans-serif font across the upper margin, while the lower frame balances the composition with the bold denomination text reading "6 CENT." A prominent, black ink circular town cancellation mark cuts diagonally through the center of the image, showing the clear date text "27.10" struck across the right side of the monarch's profile.

Circa: 1947

Condition: Used
