Macedonia year 1992 – Red Cross stamps/ full set MNH**
The Macedonia (now North Macedonia) Red Cross stamp issues from 1992 were among the first Postal Tax stamps issued by the newly independent nation.
Macedonian Red Cross stamps were released multiple times a year, usually as sets of Postal Tax Stamps (Charity stamps with an obligatory surcharge), each focused on a different health or aid campaign.
For the year 1992, there were at least four distinct Red Cross/Charity issues, each consisting of a set of 4 stamps in a block, and often accompanied by perforated and imperforated miniature sheets:
| Theme | Issue Date (Approx.) | Composition (Core Set) | Scott/Michel Numbers (Tax Stamps) |
| Fight Against Cancer (Light/Dark Blue) | March 1st, 1992 | Block of 4 Stamps (2 color varieties) + 2 S/S | RA5-RA9, Z2-Z9 |
| Life Saving / First Aid (Children’s Art/Drawings) | May 8th, 1992 | Block of 4 Stamps + 2 S/S | RA13a, Z11-Z14 |
| Solidarity (Children’s Art/Drawings) | June 1st, 1992 | Block of 4 Stamps + 2 S/S | RA17a, Z18-Z21 |
| Tuberculosis (TBC) | September 14th, 1992 | Block of 4 Stamps + 2 S/S | RA22a, Z22-Z25 |
Therefore, the full “Red Cross stamps set” for 1992 in the philatelic sense would typically refer to the four stamps and the two miniature sheets (S/S or blocks) for any single theme, or the entire collection of all four issues for that year.
The stamps are often listed in catalogs as “Z” numbers in Michel or “RA” numbers in Scott, which are used for Postal Tax or Charity stamps.
