A stamp that is currently causing me problems is inscribed as follows:

SAHARA 0CC. R. A. S. D.

The year is 1992.
The denomination is 10 Ptas. My guess is Spanish Pesetas.
Where do I find this in Scotts?

Thanks in advance.
Lizardly,
Halflizard

Never argue with a fool. People may not be able to tell the difference.

It is the former Spanish Sahara, now called Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic, but it is not recognized by all countries, currently with political turmoil. I know many bogus (fake) stamps have been produced, but I am not sure what legitimate stamps issues are inscribed or where they are in the catalogs.
