Travel the World of Postage Stamps - Butterflies (1963) - Green-banded Swallowtail (Papilio nireus) - Guinea 1963 - Michel Guinea 196 - my hobby.

Greetings friends!

Today, we are completing our journey through the sunny #guinea.

If, one day, you are asked what the year 1963 was for guinea, you cannot be mistaken, if you say that this year was like soaring #butterflies.

For me, this journey is not over, we can say that I am at the beginning of the journey, I have to find 12 more missing postage stamps from series Butterflies (1963). If I manage to do this, we will see #guinea again and 1963.

Most likely, I will have to buy a full series of postage stamps, and these 5 postage stamps, which are kept in my collection, will become an exchange fund.

On another 75 GFr - Guinean franc postage stamp, we see an amazing butterfly with black and green wings called - Green-banded Swallowtail (Papilio nireus).

I have never met such butterflies in #moldova or #ukraine.

But, this postage stamp comes from #guinea, which means that this is a small part of that country, its #history, #finance, #geography and its inhabitants.

If you have information about the circulation of this postage stamp, you can share it in the comments and get a 100% vote from me.

Also, if you want to part with your postage stamps, you can offer me an exchange for the #coins that are in my #hive-Engine wallet.

Let's take a look at this postage stamp.

For my publications, I do not use stock photographs, it is fundamentally important for me to use photographs that I have made with my own hands for publication and I can name them - authorial work.
