[edit] Summary

The stamp was issued in 1948 after the assassination of Mahatma Gandhi. It was issued in a set of four stamps. If erroneous stamps are ignored, this is the most costly post independence stamp. The mint stamp is quoted around 4,000 INR.

This is a scan I made of a postage stamp of India, issued to commemorate the life of Mahatma Gandhi. This stamp was created by the Government of India, India Post. This image identifies one of the four stamps issued August 15, 1948, emblematic of the newly formed government of India, as discussed at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Postage Stamps and Postal History of India
