Origins of the deluxe sheets is unclear. These counterfeit panes were never offered on the Stamperija website and were and are only offered by exclusive counterfeit distributors in Eastern Europe. These are not listed to exist in any catalog. The counterfeits have extreme differences in colors and the stamp images are "blurry" in comparison with the genuine stamps. These are claimed to be " limited UV cardboard" having "OFFICIAL" inscribed on the back which is seen under UV light. The inscription at the bottom translated is "Limited edition of 50 units". The whole series (both gold and silver) have been extensively sold by Eastern European and Russian sellers. They are still offered to this day by several exclusive Eastern European and Russian counterfeit distributors who are asking overinflated prices. Anyone selling these should be avoided!Also in the issue Parrots (2013):
Souvenir Sheet Parrots Gold Impressions it reflects the thematic directions:
Animals are multicellular, eukaryotic organisms of the kingdom Animalia (also called Metazoa). All animals are motile, meaning they can move spontaneously and independently, at some point in their lives. Their body plan eventually becomes fixed as they develop, although some undergo a process of metamorphosis later on in their lives. All animals are heterotrophs: they must ingest other organisms or their products for sustenance.
Birds (Aves), a subgroup of Reptiles, are the last living examples of Dinosaurs. They are a group of endothermic vertebrates, characterised by feathers, toothless beaked jaws, the laying of hard-shelled eggs, a high metabolic rate, a four-chambered heart, and a strong yet lightweight skeleton. Birds live worldwide and range in size from the 5 cm (2 in) bee hummingbird to the 2.75 m (9 ft) ostrich. They rank as the class of tetrapods with the most living species, at approximately ten thousand, with more than half of these being passerines, sometimes known as perching birds. Birds are the closest living relatives of crocodilians.
Parrots (Psittaciformes), also known as psittacines (/ˈsɪtəsaɪnz/), are birds with a strong curved beak, upright stance, and clawed feet. They are classified in four families that contain roughly 410 species in 101 genera, found mostly in tropical and subtropical regions. The four families are the Psittaculidae (Old World parrots), Psittacidae (African and New World parrots), Cacatuoidea (cockatoos), and Strigopidae (New Zealand parrots). One-third of all parrot species are threatened by extinction, with a higher aggregate extinction risk (IUCN Red List Index) than any other comparable bird group Parrots have a generally pantropical distribution with several species inhabiting temperate regions as well. The greatest diversity of parrots is in South America and Australasia
