I have these mint first stamps of Somalia Republic but I wonder if they are "real" and worth as much as Scott suggests. C 68 $40.00; C69 $29.00; 242 $19.00. Your thoughts? I'd like to sell non SOR. Image Not Found

Seem real to me. I had seen them before. The independence o/p issue was probably not a high production issue.

Michel has them as # 1-3 at 24, 50 and 38 euros respectively. Numbering corresponds with how you show them. There is a remark though that there are many forgeries for these though.

Is it the stamps or the over prints that are forgeries?
