Portrait of King Maha
Vajiralongkorn in
Army uniform, with to the left in gold the King's Royal Cipher, i.e. a chadah-style
crown with his initials M.V.K. (ม.ว.ก.). King
Rama X's
crown title is symbolized in the stamp's the denomination of 10 Baht printed
in yellow,
a colour that refers to the King's day of birth according to the
sih prajam wan
system and that corresponds to Monday (fig.).
A special feature of this postage stamp is the use of a 5-colour printing
technique with blue, yellow, red, black and white on glass foil, for the
first time in the world. The printed paper with embossed letters was sent to
England to be coated with silver foil and then to France to be coated with
another layer of transparent film in order to add a glittering beauty to the
image on the stamp. |
