The $60,000 Baghdad stamp

December 30th, 2007 webmaster No comments

I have seen this stamp before on eBay, it is obvious it will never sell because there is no certificate with it, no one has seen it or heard about it before, and it has a ridiculous price, but anyway I have a larger scan of this stamp which is on sale at the moment in eBay.

 >>Bigger version of the stamp with the error

>>Bigger version of the stamp along with the normal stamp without error

There is a lot of things which make me think this is a fake, I will just mention one which I noticed. Notice how the big post mark on the right which is so clear and looks exactly like the ink used for the rest of the writing on the stamp, but also notice on the bottom left corner of the stamp, there is a big mark which you can hardly even though the other post mark is so clear. So what is this ink on the bottom left of the stamp? If its a post mark why is it not the same clear ink of the other post mark? Could this be a used Turkey stamp which has been faked to be a never heard off error of a Baghdad under British Occupation stamp? You decide.

Some artistamps with an Iraq theme

December 30th, 2007 webmaster No comments

Ok these are no mine so please don’t ask if I have them for sale.

 I found these on eBay, they are nice and interesting, the original stamps had Military occupation of San Dinero, now San Dinero is just a non existent country in South America. In the ones below, the words San dinero are overprinted with the word IRAQ.

Unfortunately I missed out on buying these, I would have liked to have them. 

Colour variations sold as Errors

December 29th, 2007 webmaster No comments

I noticed an increase in the scams that are the colour variation “errors” and the missing parts of stamps “errors” on Iraqi stamps being sold on eBay for a lot of money. In case you  have not read past posts that I wrote about these, these are not errors.

These imperfections are added or created by dealers who want to steal your money and sell you something which is not genuine. There is a lot of money to be made from these tricks and that’s why they continue doing it.

Colour variations can be achieved by light exposure of the stamp and deletions could be done with an eraser. All of these items below and many more are Fake errors or what I like to call deliberate errors.




Basra and Thai artistamps on eBay again

December 16th, 2007 webmaster No comments

I covered these stamps before here, they are on sale again on eBay but interestingly this time the advert mentions that they are local stamps, meaning people in Basra use or used this before, THIS IS NOT TRUE, these are just artistamps and not postage or local stamps.

New Artistamps set – Ashura

December 10th, 2007 webmaster No comments

A new set of two stamps commemorating the day of Ashura. The stamps are in two colours, dark green and dark red and values of 500 Dinars each.

The Day of Ashura is on the 10th day of Muharram in the Islamic calendar and marks the climax of the Remembrance of Muharram but not the Islamic month.

This day is well-known because of mourning for the martyrdom of Husayn ibn Ali, the grandson of the Islamic prophet Muhammad at the Battle of Karbala in the year 61 AH (AD 680).

This day is of particular significance to Shi’a Muslims, who consider Hussein (the grandson of the Prophet) Ahl al-Bayt the third Imam and the rightful successor of Muhammad.

Two years for iraq-stamps.com

December 10th, 2007 webmaster No comments

Its the second year anniversary of this website www.iraq-stamps.com and I would like to welcome all new visitors and thank all the regular visitors to the site and all the people that have helped me and continue to do so to run this site and to create the stamp designs you see display.

iraq-stamps.com was created in August 2005 but went live to the public on December 2005. The site blog has been running for exactly 1 year now since December 2006.

I would also like to wish everyone a happy new year in 2008.

This is not an Iraqi revenue stamp

December 7th, 2007 webmaster No comments

This is an item i saw on eBay which is being sold as an Iraqi revenue stamp, I have not seen this item before and judging by the writing on the stamp which I could not read, it doesn’t look like Arabic and so I can assume this is in persian and is an Iranian stamp.

I have contacted the seller and I am waiting for an answer, if anyone knows let me know.

Fake 70s samples, 2 sets on eBay

December 4th, 2007 webmaster No comments

Thanks to Jaffar, a new friend to the site, he has alerted me to the fact that there are two new style fake sample sets on eBay. The sets are shown below. The stamps show a darker area to the normal stamps and that is supposed to be indication that they are sample stamps before the actual stamps were printed.

This method of creating fakes uses the same idea of scratching a part of the background of a stamp to make it look like an error.  There is absolutely no proof these are sample stamps from the printers and Iraqi stamps experts have dismissed them as fakes so Be Aware!.

 

Updated Proofs section of the gallery + article on proofs

December 3rd, 2007 webmaster No comments

I have created a new section of the gallery which shows only Iraqi stamps proofs. This section now contains many items (100+).

I also found a nice article explaining what proofs/essay are, it is taken from the NY Times.

Published: March 19, 1989

So much of a stamp’s design seems predictable – the name of the country, the denomination, ”postage,” ”par avion.” A casual glance fails to note the extraordinary skills required to produce what are often miniature masterpieces.

So much of a stamp’s design seems predictable – the name of the country, the denomination, ”postage,” ”par avion.” A casual glance fails to note the extraordinary skills required to produce what are often miniature masterpieces.

The greater efficiency of lithography in the printing of stamps permits designs that are showier somehow, with a greater range of colors than can be produced from an engraving.
