Ok, Ive not done a single post on stamps as such this month, only put up covers Ive received and today as I was shuffling through my album of odd shaped stamps this set caught my attention. This definitives set from Russia is a nice set of odd shaped stamps depicting the Kremlins of Russia.
Kremlins are fortified complexes or castles found in historic Russian cities. These stamps were issued in October 2009. A set of 12, these self adhesive stamps have an attractive peculiar shape.
Astrakhan, 1p
Zaraisk, 1.5p
Kazan, 2p
Kolomna, 2.5p
Rostov, 3p
Nizhny Novgorod, 4p
Novgorod, 5p
Pskov, 6p
Moscow, 10p
Ryazan, 25p
Tobolsk, 50p
Tula, 100p
I have the stamps in used and mint but unfortunately not complete as yet.
The used set
Missing ones here are the Tobolsk and Tula Kremlins

Quite a few missing ones here, the Kazan, Kolomna, Pskov, Ryazan, the Tobolsk and Tula Kremlins
