Hello Gandhi Collectors,
In 1969 Egypt [United Arab Republic (UAR)] issued Mahatma Gandhi (Ghandi) stamp to celebrate 100th Birth Anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi (Ghandi).
The United Arab Republic often abbreviated as the U.A.R., was a sovereign union between Egypt and Syria. The union began in 1958 and existed until 1961, when Syria seceded from the union. Egypt continued to be known officially as the "United Arab Republic" until 1971. The President was Gamal Abdel Nasser. During most of its existence (1958–1961) it was a member of the United Arab States, a confederation with North Yemen.Stamp is one of the best designed, which also has Emblem of India and UAR. One thing you will notice is that the spelling of last name. It is "Ghandi" instead of "Gandhi" !!
This stamp was sold for only $0.60 (60 cents). All new collectors need to notice this before buying this stamp or any other stamps or FDC other wise you are in big trouble if you don't do your research about pricing as well as who is seller, seller feedback etc.
Looks like this is genuine transaction because Seller has 9600+ feedback, 2 different bidder and 2 bid in this auction which indicates that no Shill bidding happens to increase price.
I hope this kind of material will help to new collector.
Even FDC don't appreciate too much. $1.58 only after 42+ years. Is it not amazing.!!.
Thanks
Ketankumar Patel.
