1909 Lar Rebellion Issues

پست ملت اسلام

The second type of the Lar Rebellion issue has the inscription changed from "the Nation of Lar" to "the Nation of Islam" and the denominations are only in Farsi with numerals on the right corners and the word " شاهي" Shahi and "قران" Kran on the left corners. The stamps printed on cream paper and the clichés vary with each other in size and printed primitively. Various forgeries exist, however the paper and ink are generally different from the original stamps and in many cases their design varies quite considerably.
