Image taken from the net (Have set as a pair)


Issue date 22 June 2021

Curacao Post has issued a set of 6 Stamps featuring South American Horse breeds - Lusitano’ (70c), English thoroughbred (Cat.1), Friesian horse (Cat.2-left), Shire horse (Cat.2-right), Quarter horse (334c), ‘Andalusiër’ (478c), and the ‘Paso Fino’ (746c). 

The 70c Lusitano Stamp has a special varnish which has the scent of the horse. (My wife sniffed, said it has a smell of horse hair and turned away - need to rub the varnish a bit - I smelled a faint smell of it the first time around but it was a huge whiff when the varnish was rubbed) Don't know if the scent will hold after a few years that is if I remember to rub the varnish 

got myself a pair of each stamp
