Description: This definitive stamp features an intricate bicolored layout featuring an orange frame surrounding a distinctive, central dark blue text block. The top of the design proudly displays the 16-petal Chrysanthemum Crest, which serves as the imperial seal of Japan. Directly below the crest, stylized kanji characters state the value as fifty sen, while a ornate banner at the baseline mirrors this denomination in Western text for international mail routes. The entire canvas is framed by complex geometric linework and traditional ornamental borders typical of the Taisho and Early Showa eras.
