Bosnia Serbian stamps year 2013 Miroslav Gospel set MNH

The postal administration of the Serbian entity in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Pošte Srpske, did issue a commemorative stamp related to the Miroslav Gospel (Miroslavljevo Jevanđelje) in 2013.

This issue honored the Gospel, which is one of the oldest and most valuable illuminated manuscripts written in the Serbian language (Old Slavonic) and is a UNESCO Memory of the World item.

Here are the key details about the stamp:

• Name of Issue: Miroslav’s Gospel (or Old Books Series, as it may be part of a larger thematic issue).
• Year of Issue: 2013
• Format: Typically a single commemorative postage stamp.
• Denomination: The specific face value on the stamp is often a high denomination, or a denomination corresponding to a certain postal rate at the time of issue (e.g., 2.30 KM or similar, though the exact value is not consistently specified in general search snippets).
• Design: The stamp’s design would feature an illustration of one of the famous illuminations (initials and miniatures) from the Gospel, which is renowned for its beautiful, unique fusion of Western (Italian) and Eastern (Byzantine) artistic styles.

It’s common for these types of stamps to be issued as single values or as part of a very small set dedicated to the same masterpiece. You are most likely looking for the single commemorative stamp issued by Pošte Srpske for the Miroslav Gospel in 2013.
