The original, unique stamp also shows a western pillar indicating the distances to the world's largest capitals: "LONDON 10500. NEW DELHI 4000 KM. ROME 9000 KM. MOSCOW 10500. JOHANNESBOURG 6750 KM. 412 SQN 4884 KMS". It is impossible to have such a postal stamp in the collection separately from the AG form, because it was specially designed for this particular issue of the AG. The figure "cachet" (cachet) AG on its front side shows a view of the sandy beach, the coastline of the ocean with palm trees and blue clear ocean water.
