Issued in 1928, this Albanian definitive stamp features a finely engraved portrait of Ahmet Zogu, then President of the Republic, who would later proclaim himself King Zog I. The design, in brown and ultramarine, bears the inscription “Republika Shqiptare” (Republic of Albania) and a face value of 1 Frang Ar. This issue reflects the transitional period of Albania’s early republican era and stands as a significant pre-monarchy item valued by historical and Balkan philately specialists. The crisp profile and classical framing make it an elegant representation of Albania’s interwar postal history.
