On February 20, 2010 Lithuania issued this 2.15 litas stamp (Sc #912) as a part of its municipal coats of arms series. Stamp depicts the arms of Varena, in Alytus County in the southern part of the country. Arms show a bee and blossoms, perhaps indicating that beekeeping is popular in the area. "Most of the municipality is covered by forests and swamps (wikipedia)."  |
