This issue was created in collaboration with the Nikola Tesla Technical Museum in Zagreb.
Croatian Post is issuing the fourth Croatian crypto stamp in cooperation with the companies BitX and Marrow Labs. Croatian crypto stamps are envisioned as the perfect combination of the analogue and the digital, and the fourth issue is available for purchase at post offices, at epostshop, and in the web shop at kripto.posta.hr/marka/v4, where the Croatian Post allows the purchase of crypto stamps with cryptocurrencies. To faithfully transpose collecting into the digital world, the crypto stamps have been divided into different digital categories, emphasizing distinctiveness and exclusivity. Motifs of Tesla's inventions appear in five different categories: Tesla's egg experiment in a rotating magnetic field in 2,000 copies, Tesla's radio-controlled toy boat in 4,000, Tesla's wireless signal transmission system in 6,000, Tesla's coil in 8,000, and Tesla's turbine in 10,000 copies, making a total circulation of 30,000 copies.
