Commemorative Issue "Religions in the Balanda Republic"

Other Christian branches or religions like Judaism or Islam play only minor roles in the Balanda Republic. The se-tenant stamps display important symbols of the 3 religions, the Shroud of Turin, displaying Carolus Glogowiensis according to the Carlists, on the CW 1.00 stamp, a wooden relief of Svantevit honoured by the Svantevitians on the CW 1.50 stamp, and an illustration from the Codex Aureus, the Gothic Arianic bible, on the CW 2.00 stamp.

Definitive Issue "Railway - Registered"

FM201015

  • To cover the need for Registered Mail stamps, Posta tal Musograd issued two different stamps with a CW 2.05 value. The first one, the "Railway Registered" issue, was in use only for a short time as it proved to be impractical in regards to the Registration Number. Posta tal Musograd tested a new method of security printing with this issue, with very fine background lines converging at a point on the right. This had the effect of creating intricate patterns which are very difficult to copy. At the same time, 7 different paper / gum combination types were tested with this issue, coming from American and German suppliers. Those are encoded in the information line, on the left side. The types are WM24-SY, WM24-PC, YM20-SY, YG54-TM, SFS-G, SFS-M and NOVAFIX. The documentation on the paper manufacturers and exact type names is under research.
