About this stamp
On the Stamp
A leopard cat sitting upright, its spotted coat printed in chocolate and ochre, with “Leopard Cat” in Hindi and English, on a ₹5 definitive.
Leopard Cat
India Post issued this ₹5 definitive on 30 April 2000; Colnect records it as printed by photogravure at the Security Printing Press, Nashik, on paper watermarked with the Asokan Capital. The leopard cat is a small wild cat with dark spots on its tawny body and legs, two dark stripes running from the eyes to the ears, and rows of long spots along its back. No India Post brochure for this stamp is online, so this text draws on Wikipedia, Colnect and the stamp itself.
