The stamps are inscribed with the name of the country at the top along with the denomination and the coat of arms on the country.

The 0.80 Euro stamp depicts some students listening to a teacher who is holding a book in his hand. The students are standing on a pile of book symbolizing the fertile soil of knowledge. The other stamp depicts a teacher guiding students with a beam of light meaning that a teacher is someone who shows a path of life to his students.
