Hello Gandhi Collectors,
Gabon is in west central Africa sharing borders with Equatorial Guinea to the northwest, Cameroon to the north, and with the Republic of the Congo curving around the east and south. Its capital and largest city is Libreville. Gabon got independence from France on August 17, 1960
In 1968, Gabon issued Mahatma Gandhi stamps/miniature sheets to celebrate 100th Birth Anniversary along with other world leaders MLK & Kennedy's. This stamps are similar to stamps issued by Cameroun, Mauritania, Chad and Niger.
Looks like very smartly designed to put all 4 of them so it will trade high in future. But looking to current price it does not looks like it.!!!
Recently all 4 stamps and miniature sheets were sold for only $1 on ebay and delcampe. Now if you buy this Gabon Gandhi stamp for more than $1 than you will quit Gandhi Philately because it does not justify value.
Following are screen shot for your reference.
BUYER OF THIS STAMPS IS "KRISHNAKEJRIWAL" |
Also don't think Gandhi stamps are for investment as it does not appreciate. It just hobby and to me it looks like it's declining worldwide except India.
Want to see how much I paid for this stamps then click following link.
(I know I lost value on this but I don't want you to lose.!!)
So don't buy this kinds of stamps/sheets which has no value. Also there are massive number of stamps from Gabon, Cameroun, Tchad, Mauritania so this are not even for investment.
Still want to do research then please read my other blog post and have fun.!!
