• 1.40 F – Moenjodaro, Pakistan: Celebrates the ancient Indus Valley city with its masterful urban design, a testament to early civilization.

Designed by Pierre Béquet and engraved by Claude Jumelet (PHÉLIPPIN credited for layout), the set blends architectural heritage with rich duotone printing for striking visual effect.
