Issued in 1963, this 30-centime commemorative from the République Rwandaise marks the first anniversary of Rwanda’s independence. The design features a detailed botanical illustration of the tea plant (“Theier”), reflecting the nation’s emerging agricultural identity during its early post-independence years. Printed by Courvoisier S.A., the stamp exhibits the clean, modern layout typical of early Rwandan republic issues, with crisp green and red tones and elegant serif typography. An attractive historical piece for collectors focusing on African independence, agriculture themes, or early Rwanda republic issues.
