350f Horizontal pair and overprint.




350f + 150f




350f + 150f (day of the post)




150f block of four vertical stamps + 1 which seems to have different measurements (children savings I think)




Document 30f with overprint and block of 3 horizontal 1 DINAR

Have you tried looking for stuff like this on Delcampe and to a lesser extent on ebay?

I've seen similar covers in dealer's boxes for $1. A few of the above covers have weak postmarks which lowers the value. Online I would guess between $1 to $5 per cover. Demand isn't that strong, especially since the there's not much of a market in Iraq for stamps and covers.

These covers are of interest, as Battlestamps says, if they have readable dates and town names. Modern Iraq covers are most interesting if the are from the Kurdish regions.

Robi, I am asking this question because I would think it easier for you to check an auction site to find a price for these items. Both ebay and Delcampe are options for you, and you can find an answer for yourself.
If you check you would get a better answer than the one we can give you because most of that stuff is not generally collected here.

I cant find similar stamp on the net (official surcharge overprint & 50 dinar overprint and keeping the 10 Dinar not crossed with lines. Please have a look and let me know if you have a different opinion.

Thanks, Robi
