The second stamp in the current USPS Lunar New Year series, issued 2 February 2021 to mark the Year of the Ox. Artist Camille Chew built the ox mask in the style of a three-dimensional paper cut, and the finished stamp was printed with gold foil accents that catch the light on the envelope.
You receive one complete pane of 20 self-adhesive Forever stamps, with the decorative selvage and all twelve zodiac animals printed along the edge of the sheet intact.
What makes this issue worth owning
- Foil-stamped detail that reproduces poorly in photographs and has to be seen in hand.
- Forever denomination — valid for the current first-class one-ounce rate no matter how postage prices change.
- Part of a twelve-year series, so panes retained in full sheets tend to hold their appeal with collectors.
Condition is mint never hinged with untouched original gum. Ships flat between rigid boards.
