Michael, as you may imagine, I for one, am in shock. Selling your lovely collection. Phew! May we enquire as to why?
You may wish to advise how to navigate the link you offered, it is all in Turkish, I clicked on a few apparent leads but could not get past the first page.

Quote: Here's the flickr link from the listing. Wow! Thank you very much, Postmaster. Helpful, as always. All members here (with interest) will appreciate that also. Surprised Michael did not use that link. |

No big reason. Just got all the pictures done - been working on that for a while - & figured why not. Been getting increasingly fed-up with the whole thing. We'll see what happens & what comes next?!
Sorry for the turkish - but yes - you just click the flickr link to see all the pix. |

125,000 Turkish Lira would equal close to $18,500.00 .Nice collection plus a large stock of additional material . |

Good luck with your sale, and with your next project, Michael. In what elegant way do you plan to waste your hours next? |

Here is a copy of a HIALEAH forgery with a bogus overprint next to a real Turkish stamp . Having a real stamp next to it makes it easy to understand the fake stamp . I plan to make a separate page on more of the HIALEAH fakes every page that is on the internet now talks about these fakes but none have a library of the different copies , most pages show just a few samples .  |

Why did he forge the overprint on a forged stamp when the genuine mint is easily avzilable? |
