This striking postage stamp from the United Arab Republic (UAR), issued during the early 1960s, depicts the colossal statue of Pharaoh Ramses II from Abu Simbel. The design emphasizes Egypt’s ancient grandeur, featuring the Pharaoh’s regal likeness in warm brown tones against a deep blue background. The stamp bears the denomination 200 milliemes, inscribed in both Arabic and Latin script, along with “UAR” — symbolizing the short-lived union between Egypt and Syria (1958–1961). This issue reflects the pride in Egypt’s monumental heritage and the artistic revival of the UAR period.
