(RCSD) SMOM Update
Just a quick note to inform readers that the SMOM (Knights of Malta) now issue their stamps denominated in Euros. I guess this brings an end to their issues denominated in the old and somewhat complex SMOM currency (scudi, tari, grani etc...). http://www.kosel.com/xpi/sh/m/mb0902s1.jpg Blair |

Whisch kind of Euro? Euro will give some "identity" to Great Britain? To make what in future to our grand sons? I know that my grandpa have Serbian Dinar, slovakian Krone, or german Mark - today I will say what? Someone say Euro - this will be "history marker" to our future generation - no, thank. |

(RCSD) SMOM Update
A tad prickly this morning Milco? People do not seem to adapt to change, nor do they seem to want to remain stagnant? what are we to do? Perhaps, as someone once said, just "let it be" I remember a 70's rock group, "The Blue Mink" had a resolution to people not having the ability to celebrate differences in skin colour. They suggested we all make love, and "turn out coffee coloured people by the score" A great song and melody, but the suggestion does not appeal to me. "Milco" wrote in message ...

(RCSD) SMOM Update
In 1975, the designer of this stamp for International Womens year met with scathing criticism for her design. http://cjoint.com/data/hqdODOIlsm.htm One could be excused for finding a striking similarity to this SMOM stamp for international refugees (which on 90% of refugee issues shows an Oak tree and roots) http://cjoint.com/data/hqdR1FGB7S.htm "Blair (TC)" wrote in message ...

The SMOM stamps are in the same category as some of those Grenadine Island stamps: Not listed in Scott stamp catalog, not listed by my many supply sources and unavailable from their local "post offices". The SMOM stamps are not recognized as postage by many nations. Yes, I know Scott is not the only stamp catalog, however in my case it is. Ralph |

No reasons to get mad for such a thing. Not only that the value, design, paper and form permanently changed for these so called "roots", but even the name of the used currency changed quite often in so many countries. And last but not least, even the government is able to print or to let print money (and stamps). -- Victor Manta ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Philatelic Webmasters Organization: http://pwmo.org/ Art on Stamps: http://artonstamps.org/ Romania by Stamps: http://marci-postale.com/ Communism on Stamps: http://reds-on.postalstamps.biz/ Spanish North Africa: http://www.sna-on.postalstamps.biz/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
