🇵🇬 PNG Post (postal service of Papua New Guinea) -
2 October 2023 - Nadzab Tamadachi International Airport - 4 stamps, 1 sheetlet containing 4 stamps and 2 miniature sheets, one containing 2 stamps and the other a single stamp. Designed by Yang Hu’eng Yansom and lithographed. Gene (DJCMH) of Colnect has kindly supplied the above illustration of a used example of one of these values which he was contacted about by a Colnect user. Thanks to Gene and the Colnect user for the illustration which confirms that at least one of these stamps has been put on sale.
Thanks to this information I have been able to track down a posting on the Facebook page of JICA Papua New Guinea (JICA stands for Japan International Co-operation Agency) which provides illustrations of all the items included in the issue. The accompanying text describes 29 January 2024 as the date of launching of this issue which means that the date given on the PNG Post internet site may be incorrect and that this is a 2024 rather than a 2023 new issue. This may be an issue sponsored by the Japanese government via JICA and donated to PNG Post. The total face value is currently equal to £11.51p.
