OK...The clock on the left is the clock face that is shown on the stamp...It shows I..II..III..IV. The real clock on our Parliament Building as the right pictures shows is really I..II..III..IIII MISTAKE  |

How strange. The mistake is on the real clock (which was not duplicated on the stamp)  |

Lots, if not most, Roman numeral clock faces use IV.
However, lots, if not most, have the numerals based along the inner circle.
And, the clock on the left makes a jumble of VIII-IX. |

I was responding to Jenny2U, who thought that the real clock was incorrect in using IIII. |
