Description: The colorful stamp features a prominent, detailed portrait of smiling American astronaut John Glenn clad in his classic NASA spacesuit neck ring. Floating dynamically to his left is the iconic cone-shaped Mercury space capsule depicted in orbit above a swirling, detailed view of Earth’s surface from space. The words "U.S.A. MERCURY–JOHN GLENN" are cleanly printed across the upper border, while the bottom border anchors the piece with the country name "REPUBLIC OF MALDIVES" alongside the official national emblem. Marked in the bottom right corner is its nominal face value of 2 laari.
