The stamp with the face value of RON 0.60 depicts the heraldic
symbols of the Moldavian region based on sigillary and monetary
springheads. The first representation is found on the backside of
the grosses, coins struck during the reign of Petru I Musat,
Moldavian ruler ( 1375-1391), as well as its sigillum from 1387.
The Moldavian coat of arms shows the bull head with a 5-ray star on
its forefront between its antlers, flanked by a rose on the right
side and a crescent on the left. This is also illustrated on a seal
from 1430 belonging to Alexander the Good (Alexandru cel Bun). This
heraldic representation of the Moldavian coat of arms can also be
seen on religious monuments and historical documents.
The stamp with the face value of RON 1.00 presents the heraldic
symbols of the region of Wallachia. Early since its creation, the
main element of the symbol was the eagle accompanied by the sun and
the moon. The image of the coat of arms of Wallachia highlighted on
the seal of Waiwode Mircea the Elder (Mircea cel Batran) on a
document dating since 1390 is considered to be the oldest and the
most accurate representation of the symbol. If the initial coat of
arms presents the eagle with folded wings, it later on suffered
some visible modifications such as a richer plumage with unfolded
wings, on the edge of taking off, as envisaged on the seal of
Patrascu cel Bun in 1557.
The stamp with the face value of RON 3.00 shows the heraldic
symbols of the region of Transylvania. At the end of the 16th
century, certain printed works showed the printed images of a cut
shield with an eagle in the upper part and seven mountain ranges in
the lower one, tended by crenellated towers. Along the time, the
mountain ranges disappeared from the heraldic representation of the
region of Transylvania but the red towers on golden fields were
preserved in the upper part, together with the eagle flanked by the
sun and the moon. Bearing in mind that the coat of arms of
Transylvania suffered, in time, no noticeable modification, after
the accomplishment of the Great Unification on December 1st, 1918,
its elements were incorporated in the Romanian coat of arms.
The stamp with the face value of RON 3.10 illustrates one of the
variant of the coat of arms of the Romania’s capital,
Bucharest. Created in 1930 by the de Heraldic Consulting
Commission, the symbol was used until 1948. After 1989, the City
Hall of the Municipality of Bucharest decided to give the city its
ancient coat of arms. The emblem represented the golden eagle
holding a cross in its beak, bearing the steel Romania crown on its
head. The central part shows Saint Mare Mucenic Dumitru –
military saint, protector of the city of Bucharest. The eagle has a
silver sword in its right claw and a golden scepter in its left
one. The motto accompanying it is My Country and my right.
