The collector's stamp, printed in an edition of one million, was presented at Fiat's Mirafiori plant in Turin, i.e. the place where the vehicle then known as the "Nuova Cinquecento" was manufactured from 1957 onwards. The stamp, worth 95 cents, shows as a motif the silhouette of the classic car, now coveted worldwide, projected onto the body of a current Fiat 500. On a blue background there is also a ribbon in the colors of the Italian flag, framing the words "Fiat Nuova 500″ and the date 1957-2017.
