The Terengganu Royal Philatelic Presentation issue was prepared for an event in 2013. Technically it was “unissued” until yesterday evening (Friday, 05 December 2014). This item was hotly chased today by dealers and by casual visitors as it is really attractive!
The miniature sheets comes in a regular perforated Miniature Sheet as well as in Imperforate Miniature Sheet.
Thus the official date of issue is 05 December 2014.
There was no publicity nor announcement at the exhibition. It caught many by surprise.
In the absence of an official envelope, the WYSE envelope was used.
I am sure with time, someone with spare envelopes from the past or (shudder thinking about it) someone might tear out the old stamps to stick this since the issue is not “hot” anymore!
