Description
Issued in 1993, this commemorative medal was created for a philatelic exhibition in Timisoara, Romania, organised by the Asociatia Filatelica Timisoara, under the auspices of the Romanian Philatelic Federation (F.F.R.). The obverse displays the coat of arms of Timisoara, with full lettering around it reading: “ASOCIATIA FILATERICA TIMISOARA OD F.F.R.”, referring to the organising body and its affiliation.
The reverse features a symbolic design of a running angel scattering post cards, representing the spread of philatelic interest across regions. The full inscription on the reverse reads: “EXPOZITIA FILATERICA TIMISOARA 5 ORASE 1993”, which commemorates a five-city stamp exhibition. This piece belongs to the category of postal-themed exonumia, with strong regional cultural relevance. It is of interest to both numismatists and philatelists who collect event medals tied to Eastern European philately and local civic pride.
