New Issues 2001 (June
- August)
This page collects only issues released during
the year 2001 (period between June and August). For
issues to come (announced) see the latest
information.
As it is not such obvious as it looks to find
this information, this list is probably not yet complete.
In certain countries, joint issues are often announced on
the day of the issue and sometimes it takes months before
this information and the corresponding stamps reach us. Data
on missing issues or supplementary information, particularly
for countries, which are producing joint issues exceptionally,
will be highly appreciated.
