This 5 cent red stamp from the 1895 Wuchang Treaty Port definitive series features a traditional Chinese pagoda, symbolizing cultural heritage and architectural elegance. Issued in the context of foreign-administered Treaty Ports, this stamp reflects the semi-autonomous postal systems that emerged in late Qing China. Printed by the Shanghai Lithographic Society using lithographic methods, it was released without a standardized perforation, resulting in minor variations across specimens. The Wuchang local issues were among the earliest to illustrate regional identity through architectural landmarks. Cataloged as Scott WU 5, Michel CN-WU 5A, and Stanley Gibbons CN-WU 5. Condition: Mint never hinged with bright original color and clean margins, minor age toning consistent with age. Estimate "$55 – 65".
