[[image – Two 5 cent Belgian stamps. The stamps are green and obscured by various postmarks. The stamp features the middle version of the Belgian coat of arms which is surrounded by an oval frame with wings at the top. The left side of the frame has the word "BELGIQUE"; the top has the word "POSTES"; the right side has the word "BELGIE"; and the bottom has the word "POSTERIJEN". At the bottom corners of the frame, there are boxes that contain "5c" inside them. In a separate box below the rest of the stamp are the following words: 
"NES PAS LIVRER LE DIMANCHE.
NIET BESTELLEN OP ZONDAG.".]]
