The homepage always has a nice overview of the oldest stamps, among other things. My attention was drawn to a very special stamp. It was issued in the year 984. This makes it by far the oldest stamp we know. This concerns number 6629857 (: - ).

A typo miss happens to everyone. I took the liberty of changing the year to 1984, but I hope it will be on the front page for some time to come.

You had the chance to change the annoying title as well?

Some people are never satisfied either. Moreover why should I. I feel that I have made an important contribution to the catalog by changing it. The stamp is back where it should be, so that the risk of double entry has become a bit smaller. Or people can now more easily add the stamp to their collection. Sellers can put the stamp up for sale more easily. It will probably not go that fast, because I do not expect Libya to be the most common country. Yet. In my opinion, a meaningful improvement with regard to the catalog.

In addition, the title was not disturbing to me. Not correct and could be better, I agree. But disturbing? No, I don't care about the seal. There are no animals on it and Libya is not my country. Who benefits if I change the title? Not me, most Catawikians don't. Apparently only Tapir. Your striving to get the catalog correct and complete is in itself commendable, but I am not a catalog administrator. I am just a simple user trying to get his collection in the catalog as best I can. And to achieve that I made a lot of changes. I am satisfied and Catawiki satisfied.

In third place, I get a bit of a pot and a kettle feeling. Why didn't you add the theme medicine at the same time? Or for example the Yvert number? The latter may be a bit more work, but okay. You are not consistent yourself. Nothing new under the sun.

I also thought, if az60 is no longer a catalog manager, is Arco still a catalog manager?

;-P

The title above the profile has not been removed yet. Maybe because Arco is no longer a catalog manager? (:-).

Something has probably got stuck in a table. Asked this afternoon if they want to update it manually.
