Alderney year 1995 stamps Flora Fauna Birds Butterfly full set MNH
The full set consists of 21 stamps issued in two parts in 1994 and 1995 to replace the previous definitive issue. The stamps featuring Flora and Fauna released in 1995 as part of this ongoing series are generally considered to be the six highest denominations of the set (the remainder having been released in 1994).
However, if you are referring to a single commemorative set released in 1995 that specifically includes a butterfly, it is part of a larger, extended definitive series.
