Eritrea 1997 5 cents NGC Certified Genuine

Located in the Horn of Africa, Eritrea is bordered by Ethiopia, Sudan, and Djibouti. Its highly desirable location has made it, for much of its history, a target for annexation, and since the 19th century it has passed from Egypt to Italy to Great Britain to Ethiopia.
