I'm surprised that no one mentioned the whole series of French stamps that have regional (cities?) coats of arms. There are a few other countries that have series as well, but I can't think of them off hand. Boy, all those pictures above make me jealous! I don't think I have any of them, maybe a few of the Yugoslavia ones, that's it! I don't consider myself a topical collector, but I do try to get all the Coats of Arms stamps I can find. Also, all the ships, lighthouses, fish, and anything else nautical. But I don't keep them separate, just put them in with all the other stamps from whatever country they belong to. |

Here is part of a set of German coats of arms.  Sorry for the poor scan. Sold these some time ago, and this is all I have. |
