| North Ingermanland: Specialized Stamps: First Issue |
|
|
| Scott numbers have been used unless otherwise indicated. All items are available for viewing on approval. I am also interested in buying most North Ingermanland stamps. |
| Only the second North Ingermanland issue (pictorial designs) has been heavily forged. (Credible forgeries of the first issue have not been reported.) The genuine stamps are usually easily identifiable. I only sell North Ingermanland stamps and covers that have been properly examined. I do not consider it necessary that collectors incur the cost of certificates for these issues, if they are purchased from a knowledgable specialist. However, in my experience, a large proportion of the 1922 Issue stamps offered by non-specialists or through general auctions and especially Internet auctions, are not genuine. Caution is advised. |

7 [10 mark, brown and black] Imperforate single, Mint VF, very lightly hinged. Ample margins. Despite the Scott listing for pairs, these are usually collected as singles. Much, much more difficult to obtain than the catalogs suggest. This is the key value of the set and is rarely available by itself.
