France

Date of Issue: 9th May 2025

one stamp (2.10 €)

 
This stamp is issued in a sheet of 15 stamps

The stamp depicts an Attic Oenochoe (wine jug made in Greece) enhanced with gold discovered in the tomb of a Celtic prince from the fifth century BC. in Lavau (Aube) by Inrap (National Institute for Preventive Archaeological Research)
NOTE - France first announced the stamp below before replacing it with the new design. No official information has yet been released about this change. We can imagine that the reason is to have a design closer to the official theme of ‘National archaeological discoveries’. The first drawing, with a dinosaur skeleton, is more about a palaeontological discovery...
