If you place the date in the serial number for those specific things in that section without day/month fields, format YYYYMMDD, they will be neatly sorted according to 'date'.

Okay, I did a bit of birding yesterday (Dutch!), it's a small setup, so it's far from perfect. It now only concerns first day stamps. For example #10322203 . With the first day stamp, the combination of stamp/stamp is the most important. So the title corresponds to the stamp issued. I indicated the publisher/manufacturer, in this case BERLIN 10117, i.e. the post office where it was stamped. For series, the name of the issuing group, of the stamp. This is to make it easy to connect the item. And it is now also linked, two-sided. In the sub series, I have copied exactly the date as it appears on the stamp. So with dots or dashes. Something like the nominal value must also be copied, exactly as it is stated there. This has the advantage that if I enter this exactly as it is in the search engine, I also arrive at the item.

According to this design, no additional fields are needed, and you cannot filter on them anyway. The only advantage of a month/day field is the sorting. This is now mixed up. You can arrange this by the order of numbers, which is correct if you know how many stamps were issued in that year. However, of course you don't know how many different stamps there are on these stamps. Normal and special.

That's why I don't know how one arrives at a number of max. 5000?. If I do a little searching here at home, I think I will quickly find about 2500. Without putting in too much effort!

That's right Helv, they are two different perforations, #10325173 has the zickzack, (spreading is offset), the other two sawartig (much more even in shape, looks like a saw).

Charles1971 the problem is that I have the perforation of #10325173 is not at all similar to #10321399 and #10321397 (by the way, I should have given these two as examples).

Indeed a bit of a tough one for a Monday evening Helv . I think it's possible #10325173 just Michel 6 B. Plain matte and white paper, zickzack serrated, issued on December 6. The 6 A wb z only exists with a 14 perforation, not zickzack or sawn.

#10325159 Michel 6 A wa z is correct in my opinion, A for perforation 14, wa for gray pink paper, z horizontally ribbed eraser.

Just added #10325173 . When I place this next to #10325159, I have the impression that the first one with comb serration 14 is a worn machine.

These stamps also exist with "Durchstich zickzackformig" 13 1/2. ( #1627715 was entered with that perforation). So I have some doubts. I find it difficult to make the difference based solely on different paper.

Does anyone have more knowledge of these stamps?

At PostNL I see explicitly mentioning the version with stamps and indeed no mention of "without content". Furthermore, I know too little about the subject. I think PostNL itself has the best answers?

Can you add the year of death 2020 to the Designer / Engraver, Bedrich Housa (1926).
Here's a photo of him.

I saw a new item ( #10323895 ) coming in at Dirk Kuyt which is also an official name of the footballer who stamped on Dirk Kuijt ( #552515 ) was already in the catalog.

Maybe an idea to provide this with an alias:

Kuijt, Dirk (1980)

az60 and Charles1971 I collect stamps from N.Br. and always on the same stamp. The date is not relevant for this. Always the place name, and I can imagine if you expand this to modern times that you would also want to be able to include the (basic) seal. I can also imagine that others do not look at the stamp itself at all.

I have not entered these stamps in LD, because I have no idea how to set up a good structure for this (and there is still plenty to do within Stamps itself).

I can imagine that for FDC stamps you actually want a date, but how many are there? In my opinion, much less than the 5000 that Jummeke quoted.

my strictly personal opinion (without any administrator hat on) is that it is much simpler to always allow "Series" and "Se-tenant" separately.
Great, then we're done. Proposal accepted.

Charles1971
You should also think carefully about how postmarks are collected and therefore which fields are relevant. I have no idea myself. How do you envision that? Is an item postmarked Amsterdam, October 30, 1971 a different item than a postmark Amsterdam, October 31, 1971 and Amsterdam, November 1, 1971 and Amsterdam November 2, 1971 and Amsterdam, November 2, 1972 etc. And is Amsterdam, October 30, 1971 a others stamped as the same date in Rotterdam, The Hague, Utrecht, Vaals, Lutjebroek? And those are only Dutch places. This could then become by far the largest section in LastDodo. Or do you only include a type of stamp once, on the first date the stamp is used? Or do you take a random specimen as a representative of the type (point stamp, round stamp, etc.)? I would like to see many questions answered first before fields are added or removed. In other words, an administrator can do a lot of work here and provide direction.

Helv Perfect - Just adjust the manual and I can get started - It must also be clearly stated that the se-tenant is also a series, otherwise everyone will enter combinations.

The "Stamp" item has been removed.

I have to think about adding new fields in Other in relation to the possible dependency on/from certain objects. If that dependency cannot be properly managed, they will not be added anyway.

There will be no Other stamp section.
It has already been expressed before that in the distant future the possibility of a Philately cluster should be investigated, i.e. above the existing and new philately-related sections. But there are many other problems to solve first.

That strictly personal opinion is also in accordance with how I entered the data in Stadspost. Not knowing that, strictly speaking, that was wrong.

In any case, I would like to either remove the exception and for full-series se-tenants always mark only the se-tenant itself as a series, or even better - and that equates to Helv $$$1$$ $ and Raoul62 if I read it correctly - allow a series of separate stamps regardless of any se-tenants that have an independent right to exist.

I happen to have a catalog for Stadspost in which I can check whether stamps were available separately, but that will often be unknown and will only lead to work. Apart from that, you support sales and shortage lists less this way. (What does he actually sell/What am I actually looking for: series or se-tenant?)
