The Magnificent Fasting Buddha FDC - Gandahara Civilization; Pakistan


Issued on 21 July 1999, this beautiful First Day Cover (FDC) is awesome. The two different views of the FASTING BUDDHA - Siddharatha are shown on two stamps of Rs 7 denomination each. The set forms part of Archeological Heritage of Pakistan Collection.
I have already posted complete details of the magnificent piece of art which was crafted long ago. You can see the details at:
