Surcharged Down - Phase I values from 19 Jun 1970
See also Phase II values from 2 Nov 1970
Scott 115 - 115R, MNH
Single values from this set are available priced separately in the table here.
This set was created when the post office decided to "remainder" excess quantities of previously issued, higher value stamps, and, at the same time, satisfy the need for 20ch letter rate stamps. The Bhutan Stamp Agency in the Bahamas had not prepared many sets that contained 20ch values. Those that had 20ch values in them were supplied to the government in small quantities.
Printed quantities of this set are known and are shown in the price table for single values The quantities that were surcharged were very small, but across a total of 42 stamps in the two batches (6 of which were 5ch values issued in November), the need was satisfied. They were intended to bridge the gap in time necessary to prepare regular definitive stamps. See Wangdiphodrang Dzong definitive issue of 1971-2
These stamps were not intended for marketing to collectors. They were not announced in advance - simply placed on sale as they came available. FDCs with full sets affixed are fake.
