Hungary 50 Korona Stamp

This item is a postage stamp from Hungary, denominated at 50 Korona. The stamp features a central vignette depicting a full-length figure, likely a historical or allegorical male figure, standing on a pedestal. The figure is dressed in period attire, possibly military or ceremonial, with a sword or scepter in one hand and possibly another object in the other, though details are indistinct due to resolution. The background behind the figure appears to be architectural, possibly columns or a wall. The central image is framed by an ornate border with a repeating decorative pattern on the left and right sides. At the top of the stamp, the word 'MAGYARORSZAG' (Hungary) is clearly visible in capital letters. The denomination '50 KORONA' is prominently displayed at the bottom of the stamp, with '50' in large numerals and 'KORONA' in smaller capital letters next to it. Below the main figure and above the 50 Korona denomination, there's a smaller inscription, possibly Latin or Hungarian text, which is too small and blurred to decipher. The overall color scheme appears to be monochromatic, in shades of brown or sepia, suggesting an older printing process or a specific aesthetic choice. The stamp exhibits perforated edges, common for postage stamps, which are largely intact. The visible condition suggests some minor wear consistent with its age, but no significant tears or creases are immediately apparent.
