Austria 2025  Heroes of Mythology - Helios Crypto Stamp with Gold Bar

Issue date 16 October 2025

Austria Post to complete the Heroes of Mythology series of Crypto stamp has issued a limited edition  (350 pieces only) Gold Crypto stamp featuring Helios - Greek Sun God.

Had bought this stamp to complete my collection of the Heroes of Mythology series of holographic Crypto Stamps but was very disappointed as it did not had the exuberance of holographic foil printing for the Sun God in all its brilliance.  Though the pricing was high (500Eur) due to the limited edition (350pieces only) and a 1gram gold bar (999.9 purity) it still featured the security code at the back with Scratch off printing to claim your Gold NFT. A NFC chip is also embedded on the stamp though the details of the stamp is not visible. The QR code is also missing on the stamp. The stamp is plastic with a self adhesive sticker at the back to allow it to be stuck on an envelope though I doubt any use of the high value stamp with a denomination of 500 EUR. It remains just a collectible item and high rate of impossibility it being used as a postage. Not recommended as postage stamp but maybe as part of the crypto stamp collection (though I have stopped collecting gold crypto stamps - this one was one off to completed the Heroes of Mythology Series)
