These two diamonds share one common perf hole. I don't think that would count as se-tenant. You couldn't remove them from the surrounding sheet and have them stay together.

Fifia, that last Soviet one you showed is an odd configuration for sure. I don't understand why the one with the map of Antarctica is only partially perforated. Is it a perf error? Or they didn't want to tear the island continent in half?  |

The bottom half appears to be a label, and not a stamp...or since it is part perf, maybe its all stamp...but only one? |

Hello LB1,lithograving,Cjd thanks for your response. You are right, the first Russian se-tenant I posted earlier. I bought some more stock books and I am sorting in more stamps. I found that second Russian one and posted both se-tenants.Interesting. I am just fascinated!  |

The Sudan Military Telegraph is only one stamp, perfed down the middle so that it can be separated into two pieces, for receipt purposes. Not se-tenant. |
