Great Egret - 5 naye paise
This regular postage stamp from the foundational 1964 definitive series issued by the Emirate of Fujeira (الفجيرة) completes the lower values of this landmark collection. The horizontal duo-panel composition captures a flock of Great Egrets (Ardea alba, historically classified as Egretta alba) in mid-flight over coastal shallow waters and sandbars, with the foreground bird extending its long wingspan in an elegant aerodynamic profile. These large, white wading birds are common seasonal visitors to the tidal mudflats, mangrove channels, and maritime inlets that run along the Gulf of Oman coastline. The left-hand panel retains the signature intricate, flowing gold arabesque frame enclosing the formal portrait of the ruler, Sheikh Mohammed bin Hamad Al Sharqi (who governed Fujeira from 1942 to 1974), wearing traditional attire and holding a ceremonial khanjar. As a core base value, this 5-np denomination was widely utilized across the emirate's early independent civil infrastructure to validate standard internal domestic mail transit.
