Year of Dragon 
2012 year from Serbia




It come like surprise, because lot of countries come out with this topic this year. Probably all wanted to (suddenly) be friend with China peoples?


From all that I saw in recent few months, hardly that one or two can be nearly this issue, when is talking about design. I saw lot of naive drawing, hi-tech design, some laser-cut also - but real artist expression I find just on this Serbian issue.



 The stamp come out to market at Feb. 6, 2012 with two stamp in set. Face value of 22.00 and 55.00 Serbian Dinar. Translate it to euros, it will reach some 2.80 euros, but dealer will ask around 
5-6.00 euros per sheet of four, and I think it is worth it.

If we have need just for set, prepare to give in shop some 1.20-1.40 euros. What I like mostly in this set is 55.00 Dinar stamp, where we have this "Dragon in full strength, sitting on some kind of stand" (usually on corner of building)emitting "grace and proud" from artist view and work. 


On CM we see it more closely, beauty of grace! Probably even China collectors and artist will agree with me.




Even that price for all this option, to have set, s/s, FDC and CM is not so small (around 10.00 euros), I will suggest to have it in collection. Don't know what future will show us, but price can just rise on market in future.

Rais!

probably You are correct when mentioning that I will need knowledgeable client for this (shown in this blog) stamp - honestly is not in question here, because we talk about stamp, that will have or almost have very nice price tag, and items that many regular collectors don't have in collection!

Most of collectors around globe are honest in principle, but many of them prefer just to collect, for joy, and they don't even consider this "joy" like investment! (even that they spend lot of money in collection).

Your statement, that "very few" of stamp have "great deal" actually don't hold, because simple fact, that each of shown, have multiple market value comparing it with face value that buy on the time when issued!
