Mint accumulation Part B: One collector’s duplicates covering 1989-2007, and what a group it is. Housed in two near-new 64-black page Lighthouse stockbooks (one with a black cover, the other a dark green), each stamp is identified with its Scott number. This is a very complete run, but lots of space has been left to allow the stamps to breathe. Up to 10 of a type, all appear to be never hinged. Notable examples include #631-644 (3 sets), #777-793, postage dues. The first few years looks like a stock with a near-complete run of issues in quantity. By the mid-1990s, there is still lots of completeness, but the holding looks more like a collection with 1 or 2 examples of each). Part of this is due to the prolific issuance policy of this Mediterranean colony, but the face value and catalogue value is extensive. Most individual sets in these stockbooks catalogue $5.00-$10.00 EACH. Huge original face value and catalogue value, with extensive potential for the topical collector or dealer. Plus stockbooks that retail at over $100.00 Estimate =
