A monument to the Conquerors of Virgin Lands was erected in Kostanay, Kazakhstan, in honor of the 30th anniversary of this feat in 1984. The monument consists of three figures and a long waving ribbon, towering on a trapezoidal shape. The figures represent sowers and land surveyors, and the ribbon depicts the stages of the virgin epic. The stamp that you sent me is probably a commemorative issue from 1979, celebrating the 25th anniversary of the same event. The stamp has an image of a factory, a tractor, and wheat stalks on it, symbolizing the industrial and agricultural achievements of the virgin lands campaign. The stamp also has a gold emblem with “Золотая медаль Ленина” (Lenin’s Gold Medal) written on it, which was awarded to the best workers and collectives in this field. The stamp has a large “25” in the top right corner and a smaller “K50” in the bottom right corner, indicating the denomination of 25 kopecks and the year of issue. The stamp has a red banner with “Почта СССР-1979” (Post of USSR-1979) written on it, and a green banner with “Слава реформ Ленина” (Glory to Lenin’s reforms) written on it. The stamp has “Ленина” (Lenin) written in large letters on the left side.
