1248. 🇬🇾 New Guyana Definitives Among Latest Batch Of IGPC Issues.

🇬🇾 The Guyana Post Office Corporation has 5 stamps in the latest list of new issues from IGPC which seem to be being offered as new values to add to the Wildlife definitive series of 2014 and which are clearly intended for postal use rather than to serve purely as a source of philatelic revenue. Having said that, although the date of issue is stated to have been 7 June 2018, two of the values were released previously as part of the original issue - the $80 Jaguar stamp and the $150 Toucan stamp - so that the $25, $100 and $140 appear to be the only new stamps. Rating:- ****.






  Other IGPC issues for Commonwealth client territories from the latest list appear to be less relevant to the respective territories' postal requirements:-
