Thank you, two experts!
The stamps of these small countries, it is difficult to tell if they are real or fake, and I only have the 1996 American Scott stamp catalogue in my hand. Germany's Michel stamp catalogue is more serious.
Chinese philatelists, they like to use the catalogue of the new edition of Michel in Germany, the new edition of 2023, there are people who sell them in China, very expensive, see picture.
So, I have to turn to you experts and thank you again！ -
Even if the stamps are „real“ in the sense that they have been issued by the postal administration of Guinea-Bissau, they hardly have any philatelic value, since they are sold through agencies with the sole purpose of earning money on the collectors‘ backs. Guinea-Bissau is one of the worst predatory states.
