I like the Spitsbergen one very much.

But why would Spitsbergen issue its own stamps?

They needed to use a special glue that could take more spit without being licked off the stamp.

Hi fincbob2451

If the five shillings arms stamps of Australia are on thin paper then it has a value in gibbons of seventy-five pounds
