Issued by Republik Maluku Selatan (South Moluccas), this attractive 15K postage stamp features the native Spotted Cuscus, an arboreal marsupial indigenous to the Maluku Islands. The design highlights regional wildlife against a tropical forest backdrop, reflecting the biodiversity of eastern Indonesia. Stamps of Republik Maluku Selatan are regarded as Cinderella or local post issues, connected with the short-lived South Moluccan independence movement of the early 1950s. Wildlife-themed RMS stamps remain popular among topical collectors of fauna and political postal history. Fine engraving and vibrant coloration make this an appealing addition to exotic animal collections.
