Issued by the Republic of Panama in 1950, this 0.01 Balboa commemorative stamp was created to promote physical education. Printed by Waterlow & Sons Limited, the design features a hand holding a torch, surrounded by a ribbon inscribed with the words “Espíritu – Cuerpo – Mente” (Spirit – Body – Mind), symbolizing the holistic development of individuals. The clean blue and black engraving emphasizes discipline and national progress through education. A key issue for collectors interested in Panamanian education and social welfare themes.
