22crows is correct. The OP shows the second value in a set of five, Rod's picture shows the first one. The Zebra Seabream retails for $0.79 according to http://stampworld.com . The exact date of issuance is not given, but a second set with the same pictures but different background appeared in 1975.
Quote: According to Stanley Gibbons this fish is a Zebra seabream, issued by Libya in 1973, SG 612.
Nice work 22c. Grrrrrr I looked at every stamp issuer, with Arabic Script, nothing, totally missed Libya . When I did search fish in Libya, up it popped.
Countries with Arabic script on their issues? Turkey Syria Saudi Arabia Iran Iraq Lybia Aden Sharjah Umm al Qiwain Fujeira
