This slate-grey 1-naye-paise stamp features a vertical photographic portrait of an individual Sharjah Boy Scout standing at attention in full uniform, holding a traditional pioneering staff on a courtyard assembly ground. The background shows a formal municipal structure, while the top right corner features the iconic scouting fleur-de-lis emblem containing two stars, symbolizing truth and knowledge. As the base value of the set, this issue celebrated the individual discipline and physical training central to the emirate's early civic educational initiatives.
