Issued by Belgium in 1967, this finely engraved semi-postal stamp honors Robert Schuman, one of the founding architects of modern European integration and the European Coal and Steel Community. The denomination 2F + 1F indicates a charitable surcharge supporting social causes. The dignified portrait style reflects Belgium’s classic mid-20th-century engraving tradition. Highly collectible among Europa, political history, and European Union thematic collectors, this issue represents an important figure in post-war European reconciliation and cooperation.
