2018 continue II:

13-2018 "World Champ Football":

As we know, this World Cup was held in Russia, despite many obstacles it was one real show of sport and organization was just perfect!
Serbia, made this postage stamp in "nice" way. I can say just "nice" because artist have some "new way" idea in making design. Composing Russian achievement in cosmos with football competition is little bit challenge, so, design come in just "nice" way!
Two stamps in set and one miniature sheet come to the market on June 14, 2018, with face value in very affordable scale. 5.13 US$ per set and m/s is really low as can be.





14-2018 "Children's Stamp" - Baby Zoo:

This issues come in every year, and this is one that will, probably, continue in the future, even that I don't like it, because here we have clear intention just to take some money, for product, that we really don't need. "Children's Stamp" in name, hardly that Serbia children will benefit from this!
On postage stamps, four in set, we can see "children's" of animal in Belgrade Zoo, wolf, goat, mare and swan. Set of four have lowest possible face value, and on market will be available around 1.70-1.90 US$. On market arrived on June 19, 2018.



15-2018 "Science":

What we have here, are portrait of scientist that are important for Serbia and world. Four stamps in set, set that is well designed in booklet format.
Persons on stamp are: Stevan Boskovic (1868-1957), Mihailo Petrovic Alas (1868-1943), Antal Koch (1843-1927) and Vladimir D. Laskarev (1868-1954).
Booklet come to the market on July 10, 2018, and on market, You will find it for around 4.76 US$.




16-2018 "Tourism":

really nice issue, tourism and nature shown from Kopaonik Nature Reserve, with typical Serbian house on it. Design well made and face value minimum, but market will ask for around half dollar per this single stamp. CM are worth to have.




17-2018 "Ljubichevo Game":

Again one "modern" design, for stamp that are here, just to remember this Ljubichevo region and game that are held there every year.
Nice for collectors of HORSE on stamp, but nothing more than that!
One stamp alone, minimal value, and hardly that it will reach some market value more than dollar per stamp.
On market at Aug. 31, 2018.


18-2018 "Monastery and Fresque":

This one issue are really art! very balanced design,color composition just perfect, and celebrating 600 years of Monastery Manasija! Yes, You see it correct, it is 600 (six hundreds) years back, when Serbian people made this monastery, today named Manasija, and also Resava Monastery. Endowment of Despot Stefan Lazarevic (Serbian ruler), the son of Duke Lazar and Duchess Milica, the knight of the Order of the Dragon. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_the_Dragon).
Issued on Sept. 14, 2018, single stamp that is worth to have.
Minimal face value for stamps, but on market will be somewhere on half dollar, and for FDC and CM You will need to prepare more than 6.00 US$.



19-2018 "Joint Issue Serbia-India":

Great 70 years pass in this contact between Serbia and India, and design go for two great scientist, I can say, mostly important scientist for human race! It is Nikola Tesla, and Swami Vivekananda.
Design just perfect, and printing sheet composition even better made.
On market come at Sept. 15, 2018, with affordable face value. How much it will cost on market I really don't know, but I'm sure, not less than 2.50 US$ per set of 2, and if You wish also sheetlet format with gutter on middle, You will need very high of some 35.00 US$ per sheetlet!


20-2018 "Joy of Europe":

For me, it is strange that Serbia continue with this topic, to celebrating Children's Week, with happening that give importance to our children and education.
So, shortly: single stamp, "middle" face value, no significance on Philatelic market.
Issued on Sept. 28, 2018.



21-2018 "Stamp Day":

I will suggest, to Serbian Post, to stop with this issues, and if to continue, to continue just once in 5 year period, because we see that all idea for design are gone. This time we see in design radiogram, and team that operate it (on FDC), but overall design are lost!
On market Oct. 2, 2018, minimal face value, hardly that will reach half dollar on market!


22-2018 "Christmas":

Here we have two stamps in set, as usually, design from religion, fresque from Sopocany Monastery, which come back to 13th century!
When I thinking little bit about this fact as 13th century monastery, or 600-700 years back, that SERBIAN people made, and build, I come to conclusion  that it is one very-very old CIVILIZATION in question, it is not some "new" Republics for "new" nationality (to mention, that "new" can be applied" for all less than 80 years existence) - civilization, that, from history, all west powers wanted to destroy. Ottomans, West, and sometime east just attack this very advanced CIVILIZATION, that left behind many "educated" countries.
Two stamp in set, Oct. 10, 2018, well made. Keep it in Your collection, it is worth this 2.36 US$ on market, for set!

2016 continuing 6-2016 and up:

6-2016 "Science":



This issue come to market on April 13, 2016, with two stamps in set.
There is one value with "50 years Mathematical Grammar School - Belgrade" and second with "225 years of Gymnasium Sremski Karlovci"!

One very good design and high importance topic, as education is still priority in national pride!
Cancel is really clever, with OWL in middle as symbol for wisdom - so, for topical collectors it will be item of "must to have".

7-2016 "Fauna":



Issued on April 27, 2016, set of 4 values, and in usual format of 5 sets, with gutter on middle that form one complete picture. I personally don't like this format, as it made just "problems" for collectors (additional album page, hinges, space in album, money spend) but, it is nice looking - isn't?

As is, is! Here we have shown European Beaver (Castor fiber L, 1758), Eastern Imperial Eagle (Aquila heliaca Savigny, 1809), The Griffon vulture (Gyps fulvus, Hablizl, 1783), and The European Otter (Lutra lutra, L, 1758). 

8-2016 "EUROPA":



Issued on may 9, 2016, set of two value. 
To be fair, I really don't like this year design in all of this EUROPA issues, but on this Serbian one, Post of Serbia made one nice "funny" detail on overall picture, so it can have one "satisfactory" level.

9-2016 "Nature Protection":



Issued on May 26, 2016. Set of two value - as usually, showing us Nature around Serbia.
This time it is Nature Reserve in Pester, and Kucaj-Beljanica mountain. 
Nice made, even that printing quality or design still missed color variety, and as this is panoramic view, we will hardly notice there (on stamp) shown sheep and one flower (which I admire well) - Snowdrop !

10-2016 "Stamp Day":



Out on market on Jun 7, 2016. As usually, "Stamps on Stamps" topic!
Nice design showing us first issues of Serbia!
Sheet composition little bit strange and unusual as it is of 16 stamps, but as it is low face value, than it is also affordable!

11-2016 "Olympic Rio":



Issued same day as previous issue, Jun 7, 2016, and mu opinion is DISASTER!
I have one principle, and it is: "If You don't know how to made it - better not made it at all"!

This kind of "modern art" design I really don't like, but other people - other taste! So, set of two values and next one m/s will take from Your pocket some 5-6 US$, and if You specialize in Olympic issues, than You will need it!

12-2016 "Tesla Patent - Transformer":



On market Jun 26, 2016, with little bit "strange" choice of portrait of Nikola Tesla (1856-1943), just on label/gutter we see this great scientist recognizable portrait!
His proto-type are shown, so with his portrait we have one nice issue!

Postage Due 2-2016:



Two stamps, as usually in very low value, of 10 dinar, but IF You will find any dealer that have it in stock - You will be lucky one!
All of catalog will value it low as 0.25 $, but when searching to buy it, You will have difficulty! There is almost no one that have it in stock, and who have it, will ask for minimum of 1$ per sample!
One stamps is for St. Sava Church in Belgrade and second is for Olympic in Rio.
This Olympic come under motto "The medal is won by heart",  probably allusion to doping scandals we have in sport.
