This 7-cent United Nations stamp, issued in 1955, honors the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and its mission to foster global monetary cooperation and expand world trade. The design features the IMF’s globe-and-olive-branch emblem alongside the UN insignia, with inscriptions in French emphasizing international collaboration and commerce: “Promouvoir la coopération monétaire internationale et accroître le commerce mondial.” A symbol of post-war financial unity, it reflects the UN’s efforts to strengthen global economic stability through institutions like the IMF.
