I can't find this stamp anywhere. Can someone please help me? Sorry if this is a silly question, I can't figure it out.

That's ok, I'm sure George is wearing one of his typical wigs in the image.

From the Smithsonian.website, "But Washington never wore a wig. At National Geographic Robert Krulwich writes that he was stunned to learn this fact from Ron Chernow's book Washington, A Life. Krulwich explains: Turns out that hair was all his. All of it - the pigtail, the poofy part in the back, that roll of perfect curls over his neck. What's more, he wasn't white-haired. There's a painting of him as a young man, with Martha and her two children, that shows his hair as reddish brown, which Chernow says was his true color."
