African Jewelfish - 75 naye paise

This stamp from the same 1964 foundational definitive series shifts focus toward aquatic biodiversity, illustrating an African Jewelfish (Hemichromis bimaculatus). The detailed, full-color rendering highlights the striking cichlid species, capturing its vibrant reddish-orange coloration and prominent iridescent turquoise accents or jewel-like spots set against a calm underwater background. Positioned symmetrically beside the portrait of Sheikh Rashid bin Humaid Al Nuaimi and anchored by the bilingual country title at the base, the issue served as a regular postage release to authorize basic domestic mail rates while celebrating international natural heritage.
