Details
Prince Charles, who refused to be depicted on a stamp, demanded that the dies be destroyed. Nevertheless, stamps were still printed without an indication of value, which were composed with the frame of the De Bast design, and the image of the Janssens design. They were printed without teeth on small sheets of 6 by 7 centimeters on thick or thin paper.

Prins Karel die weigerde om op een postzegel te worden afgebeeld, eiste dat de matrijzen zouden worden vernietigd. Toch werden er nog zegels gedrukt zonder waardeaanduiding, die waren samengesteld met het kader van het ontwerp De Bast, en de beeltenis van het ontwerp Janssens. Ze werden ongetand gedrukt op kleine velletjes van 6 op 7 centimeter op dik of dun papier.
