A classic French colonial postage due (taxe) stamp from Guinea, French West Africa, featuring the iconic Chiffre-Taxe numeral design.
Printed in deep green, the bold central “5c” denomination within the geometric medallion reflects early 20th-century French typographic styling.
Issued for collecting unpaid or underpaid postage, these functional stamps are now prized by specialists in A.O.F. postal history.
Clean frame lines, strong perforations, and sharp impressions enhance display appeal for colonial and revenue-tax collectors.
A fundamental and affordable entry piece for any French Africa or postage-due collection.
