I received a card with a seed embedded in the stamp. I forget the origin, but I was totally blown away by it.
And just think … a seed is far more useful in saving the planet than a microchip!

I hope you planted it.
The Nederlands had such stamps, I’ve received them too

Unless the seed is from an invasive species. It might be worthwhile to ask a botanist to help you identify it first.

Mr. Hunt also managed to receive a card that was never send. For the postmark does not really look like a German one and the German and American bar codes are also missing. And the card is so undamaged after being processd by the notorious card eating USPS sorting machines.

I watched this Indonesian movie on Disney+ few days ago.
Cinta di Saku Celana
The main character is a Post Office guy. On the poster he is the one standing on the left side with his postage stamp hammer. In the movie you can see his daily tasks as Post Office guy.

I think from The Netherlands, Amsterdam.

They didn’t mention the country but I found there are many bicycles in there. I believe you are correct.
While looking at the postcard, he is imagining he is in Amsterdam with the girl he likes.

Yes, I agree with yudi and sophie54 , that the building on the postcard is in The Netherlands. I believe sophie54 because she, of course, is actually from The Netherlands, in addition to which she’s honed her powers of observation and deduction, apparently, by reading mysteries and detective novels. And I believe yudi is correct because he made the acute, almost Sherlock Holmesian observation about the bicycles, though I have no idea if he, too, likes mysteries and detective novels (I mean yudi, not Sherlock Holmes).
Furthermore, the building in the postcard looks very similar to the one that can be seen near the woman’s left shoulder in the picture of Amsterdam.

As further evidence that my life is totally devoid of both meaning or purpose, I just looked up the address “4306 Durham Road,” in Norfolk, Virginia, as seen on the postcard in the aforementioned Mission Impossible film, and there is no such address, let alone there being a post office at that address. You would think that a government agent sending an important, world-saving piece of mail to another agent would have at least taken the time to get the address right.

Or maybe they destroyed all evidence of the post office!

Yesterday I watched “The Father” (2020) where the main character, played by the legendary Anthony Hopkins, receives a postcard with a painting from his daughter in Paris:
Does anyone know the name of the painting?
(By the way, it was a great film. Heartbreaking, but definitely worth watching!)

Here’s a link to information about the painting I just found on “Tineye.” I don’t suppose Anthony Hopkins found a microdot concealed behind the stamp on the postcard, or that he saved the world at the end of the film, either. Were there at least a few explosions?

Thank you for the info - ah sadly no explosions at all in this movie 
Not even a car crash, I bet. But I had heard that it was a good movie.
