I am going to guess and say it's from Iran, but I am at work (no catalog).

Saudi Arabia

SG351

One quarter Guerche

Just to illustrate, a good scan would have identified
the text under the vignette
"Royaume de Arabia Saudie"

I see SG has got their pictures mixed up in the Part 19 catalogue as both its "three palm trees" (type 50) and "one palm tree" (type 52) images show the the type 50 design (which also has a shaded background around the tughra unlike this stamp).

I do not have a copy of the shaded background,
never seen it, and catalogues packed away.
The later issues with Jet are interesting, having two
different cartouches, of kings faisal and saud.

You're welcome,

"hand me down" knowledge, makes for a great legacy.
