United Arab Emirates – Scott # 310, used

Description

Issued in 1990, United Arab Emirates Scott #310 is the highest denomination in the UAE’s falcon wildlife definitive series, featuring the falcon, one of the most powerful and enduring symbols of Emirati culture. Falconry has long been central to life in the Arabian Peninsula and remains an important tradition in the United Arab Emirates.

The stamp shows the falcon perched on a traditional falconry stand, illustrated in a realistic and detailed style that emphasizes the bird’s sharp gaze, muscular build, and mottled plumage. The warm peach-orange background gives the stamp a rich, distinctive appearance, making it stand out among the values in the series.

Arabic and English inscriptions identify the issuing country, while the 5-dirham denomination places this stamp among the highest-value regular issues of the period, typically used for international or heavier mail.

This example is offered used, with a visible cancellation, intact perforations, and solid color. A key stamp for collectors of UAE wildlife definitives, birds of prey, and Middle Eastern philately.
