Description
Turkmenistan Scott #8 (1992) — “President Saparmurat Niyazov” — Mint Never Hinged (MNH)
Issued in 1992, this 25-ruble definitive from Turkmenistan features a portrait of President Saparmurat Niyazov, the nation’s first head of state following independence from the Soviet Union in 1991.

The stamp reflects early post-Soviet Turkmenistan’s efforts to assert national identity and honor its leadership during the transition to independence.
