Next Issue: 30 June 2025 with 3 special concordant cancellations When Giants Walked the Earth

Posted on by sky52200

Yes, finally our first dinosaur stamps! And another first, a nod to concordancy with 3 special cancellations of where the fossils were found!

The stamps comes in a nice strip of 50 sen x 2 and RM 1.50 x 2 featuring:

  1. 50 sen: Stegodon with an additional special cancellation Kinta Valley Geopark (Geopark Lembah Kinta) available in the Ipoh General Post Office
  2.  50 sen: Giant Pangolin with an additional special cancellation Niah Cave (Gua Niah) available in the Kuching General Post Office
  3. RM 1.50: Iguanodon with an additional special cancellation Mount Gagau (Gunung Gagau) available in Kuala Terengganu General Post Office
  4. RM 1.50: Tiger you can use the same Niah Cave (Gua Niah) cancellation

This is perhaps the most exciting set of concordant cancellations being made available in 3 states, a first for Malaysian Philately. Something that many countries have already done.

Hope for a series 2 since there has been more exciting fossils discovered.

“Survival is a Long Shot” – stay tuned… need to book tickets for the premiere.

Dr Henry,  are you coming along?
