2019 year: Start with:

1-2019 "Year of The Pig":

It is now, an "standard" design for this topic, "New Year" (China), which come, again, in two stamps in set. 
Date of issue are Feb. 5, 2019, with Pig as one of 12 symbols from China Lunar Calendar.
Not lot to say about design alone, as it don't have too much space to explore, but, in the end, it is one nice design with popular topic.
face value are still in low range, and set can be obtained as low as under 2.00 $ price range.





2-2019 "Easter":

This one issue, come with standard set of two, and back to "oval shape" design (that remind us to egg). 
design is very good, with reproduction of  two frescoes from Studenica Monastery. 
Face value is again under 2.00 $, but if You need FDC, that need to prepare little bit more!
Issued on Feb. 21, 2019.




3-2019 "150 years of the birth of Mahatma Gandhi":

Single stamp issue, Feb. 28, 2019, good design, but design of FDC say much more about this great person!
Small sheet composition of 8 stamps with gutter on middle, with symbol on gutter of "charkha", well know symbol of passive resistance.
Single stamp value are 1.41 $, but here You will have another option with gutter attached, and whole sheet of 8 stamps, which will increase value of the same.




4-2019 "Flora - Mushrooms":

Yes, good one issue, for sure, less good than "mushroom" issues we know from post-WWII period, but still good one. 
March 3, 2019, four stamps in set, sheet composition of 4 sets, and this time no gutter involved.
Official name is "Flora - Fungi", but I like to call it mushroom just.
On design, we see: Psilocybe serbica, Tuber petrophilum, Coprinopsis picacea and Octospora pannosa.

Now, as it is very popular topic, and set have four stamps in it, probability that You will need around 3.00 to 4.00 $ in cash to obtain this set. 




5-2019 "50 years of Radio Belgrade":

Not too much to talk, and design in such way, that this issue will be forgotten very quickly.
Single stamp, under 0.50 $ market value, come to the market on March 12, 2019.



6-2019 "100 years of the Assoc. of Drama Artist of Serbia":

Next one issue that will go un-noticed, and again with design that is something between "home work" and "must to made". Here we have luck, because FDC is much better designed.
Single stamp, less than half $ value, and probably available on market!
March 27, 2019.



7-2019 "Doyens of Serbian Acting":

March 27, 2019, 8 stamps in set, very popular actors shown, standard design that we know from past.
Not too much to talk about, except that it is under 5.00 $ market value.




8-2019 "Cities of Serbia":

Oh, I like this design!
Even that design is not so "spectacular", I still like it!
April 11, 2019, two stamps in set, Zrenjanin and Pancevo shown.
FDC and CM available, and 2.50 $ of market value worth.




9-2019 "Fauna - Protected Animals":

Four stamp in set, that come to the market on April 18, 2019, will give very nice addition to Your collection. 
Design very similar to previous issues, with Rupicapra rupicapra balcanica, Ursus arctos, Plecotus marcobullaris, Mustela eversmanii shown here.
FDC have one very nice design and sheet composition of 5 sets with gutter on middle. Gutter again is one "picture" which will just increase market value!
market value, at the moment stay with 3.56 $ per set, but whole sheet of five can go up to 23.00 $.
