Mozambique postage stamps year 2006 Anniversary of First EUROPA Stamps MNH

Mozambique issued postage stamps in 2006 commemorating the 50th Anniversary of the first EUROPA stamps. The year 2006 saw Mozambique releasing a small conservative stamp program, including a set dedicated to this significant Europa anniversary. The stamps were issued in a mini-sheet format and also as a set of 12 stamps, catalogued under Michel numbers 2853 to 2864.

The 2006 Mozambique Europa stamps featured a variety of themes commonly seen in Europa issues such as Concorde, trains, space, and important historical and cultural motifs. However, it is important to note that many stamps issued by Mozambique in this period under the Europa theme are known to be produced in large quantities or sometimes considered as illegal or unauthorized issues by some philatelic authorities.
