Description
This stamp is a postal stamp from Tunisia issued on February 25, 1957. It is part of a series of common use issued shortly after the country's independence from France. This issue is historically significant because it marks a period of transition when Tunisia still used the franc as currency, while asserting its national identity through the prominent use of the Arabic language alongside French.
This stamp depicts a hand holding a large bunch of ripe grapes, symbolizing the abundance and importance of viticulture for the Tunisian economy.
