Montenegro
2008 year, "Flora" issue:
In 2008, Montenegro Post
issued one set of four stamps under topic "Flora", showing us endemic
plant, which are protected by law in Montenegro.
On low value stamp (0.20
euro), we have shown "Prokletijska Prkosnica" (Draba bertiscea),
species in the genus Draba (family Brassicaceae).
Next value (0.40 euro), have "Lovcenski zvoncac" (Edraianthus
wettsteinii ssp. Lovcenicus),

rock
bells or grassy bells.
a small genus of flowering plants in the
bellflower family.
Last one stamp, with highest
face value (0.60 euro), have an image of "Lakusicev karanfil" (Dianthus
nitidus ssp. Lakusicii), or Carpathian Glossy
Pink.
As usually, this stamp set,
have also First Day Cover (FDC), actually two cover, which have special
cancel, dated 20. 02. 2008.
This set is listed as in
Michel catalog (160/163) and Scott (177/180), also in specialized catalog for
Montenegro (by: Mihailo Radicevic, Katalog Postanskih Maraka Crne Gore
1874-2011, page 57),
under number 251/254.
Set don't have some high
catalog prices, even can say, it is very affordable price, ranged between
3.50
.to 7.00 euro per single set, in mint, never hinged condition
Than come one,
let's say, error, which we have on two stamps.
On 0.25 euro stamp, (small
sheet of 5 stamps and one gutter), in second stamp position, there are
name of author/artist Radevic Djordje, part of name are printed in upper row:
name of author/artist Radevic Djordje, part of name are printed in upper row:
dije
Radevic
Dor
and on second stamp, face value of 0.40 euro, in four stamp position on
small sheet of 5 stamps and gutter it is again part of artist name, but this
time on lower row:
Radevic
Dor
dije
To find this "error" on FDC will be hard, as total 1000 cover
are printed, and for sure, if You wish to have it, be prepared to pay premium
for set.
