Kingdom of Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes Stamp with King Alexander I Obverse

This item is a postage stamp from the historical Kingdom of Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes, which later became Yugoslavia. The stamp is predominantly red and white, printed on paper with a perforated edge, typical of postage stamps. The central motif features a profile portrait of a man, likely King Alexander I Karađorđević, facing left, enclosed within a white oval frame. He appears to be wearing a military uniform with a high collar and epaulets, indicative of his royal and military stature. The background directly surrounding the oval portrait is a lighter red, subtly patterned. The outer border of the stamp is a deeper red, adorned with intricate geometric and scrollwork patterns, and features text in both Cyrillic and Latin scripts. The top portion of the stamp bears the Cyrillic inscription "КРАЉЕВСТВО СРБА, ХРВАТА И СЛОВЕНАЦА" (Kingdom of Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes). The lower portion reiterates this in Latin script: "KRALJEVSTVO SRBA, HRVATA I SLOVENACA". In the bottom right corner, a rectangular box displays the denomination '5D', indicating a value of 5 Dinars. There is a clear circular black cancellation mark over the lower left part of the stamp, obscuring some of the text and the '5' in the denomination, signifying that the stamp has been used. The perforations around the edges are mostly intact, though some wear is visible. The overall condition suggests moderate use and age, with slight discoloration appropriate for an item of this vintage. The printing quality is good, showing clear detail in the portrait and text.
