It came in a wad of stamps from the early Soviet Union era (Azerbaijan, Georgia, Ukraine etc.)  |

I like a good challenge, but other than noticing the kopeke denomination I got nothing...have to admit I'm stumped...  |

I saw the thread title, and expected to see a spot on someone's tie! ;-) |

They used kon as a currency in Batum, far eastern republic, Finland, Latvia, and the Russias (white, south and plain old.) |

Is this any easier on the eyes? Seems to be two figures.  (This image has been manipulated...this is not an actual stamp. That should be obvious, but I guess it can't hurt to say it.) [edit: It looked better in my image program than it does here... ] |

I just saw something thanks to CD's image; It appears there may be a name at the top!  When I get home, I will do a higher resolution scan. |

Perhaps this should be moved to the Cinderella thread? (Well, that can have boguses in it too, right...) |

Nice job, nigelc. I recognize the blue 25k...there are several more "values" in this "set." I might even have a set...I might even have a guess as to where to look, too. |

As it turns out, I have the 25k blue and 50k brown, perforated. I will post them when I finish barbequing some chicken wings  |
