First time spotted that French Precancel Taurus. Nice one.


Looks like the end...no 71 currency exists ?

Stamps from any nation can be posted, and the monetary unit doesn't matter, just the number the stamp shows.


Still have not come across a monetary value but this will do for now.

Nice, overlooked that one but Canada does have many odd values.

Wish I had gotten in this thread before. Could of had a page or two on fractional values from Latin America countries.

I don't mean to "hog" this thread, but let's get going with some higher denominations ... such as:








Now who's going to continue for 75?

This is a cinderella, but a copy of a real stamp.
Australia : 75c



What would we do without Canada?

76c

I believe the original poster wanted the currency to show
the number for the stamp to be valid, currency denomination
was open.

Strange, The Australian 75 c says Willandra Lakes, but not a lake in sight.

Confessing my ignorance, had to Google, Rohumpy.

Possibly "dried up Lakes" would suffice.
A lot of "lakes" in Australia have water at irregular times
due to the harsh climate.

Google:

The Willandra Lakes Region is an extensive area that contains a system of ancient lakes formed over the last two million years, most of which are fringed by a crescent shaped dune or lunette. Aborigines lived on the shores of the lakes for at least 50,000 years, and the remains of a 40,000 year old female found in the dunes of Lake Mungo are believed to be the oldest ritual cremation site in the world.

The Willandra Lakes Region was one of 15 World Heritage places included in the National Heritage List on 21 May 2007.
