2246. 🇹🇬 Togo Commemorates National Masonic Lodge.

 

New issues.

🇹🇬 Togo postal service.

5 December 2022 - 30th anniversary of the Togo National Masonic Grand Lodge - 1 stamp produced in sheetlets of 4, 1 miniature containing a single stamp plus the same items produced with enhanced gold printing on parts of the stamp and additionally imperforate versions of all the items. This appears to me to be from a source different from the notorious Stamperija which has a contract with the Togo postal service to produce hundreds of miniature sheets with the country’s name printed on them annually and has many of the features of stamps of other Francophone African countries in that the basic stamps are released but accompanied by limited edition extras such as an enhanced or imperforate versions which are sold at a considerable premium. The rating is for the basic stamps only though I like the enhanced versions as well but would not bother with the imperforate versions. Rating:- ****. These items are being sold on an internet auction site by e French Company, Busch Collectables.
