Issued by the Companhia de Moçambique (Mozambique Company), this elegant colonial-era stamp features the Portuguese coat of arms supported by two elephants — a symbol of strength and Africa’s wildlife. Printed by Waterlow & Sons Limited, London, it showcases fine engraving in brown and green tones, with the denomination “Vinte Escudos” (20 Escudos) prominently displayed. The stamp reflects the rich design traditions of early 20th-century Portuguese colonial issues, combining heraldic and natural motifs in intricate detail.
