State Duma ceremony applies special cancellation to Russia’s Navy stamp
Philately NewsA special-cancellation ceremony for Russia’s Navy stamp took place at the State Duma on 28 October 2026, JSC Marka reported on 30 October.
Participants included State Duma first deputy chair Irina Yarovaya, defence committee chair Vladimir Kasatonov, Rear Admiral Vladislav Pavlov and Russian Post director general Mikhail Volkov.
The stamp depicts a frigate, a strategic missile submarine and aircraft. Its designers are Sergei Ulyanovsky and Rosita Ruiz. Marka states that 88,000 stamps were produced and that the issue originally went on sale through post offices and the Collectioner retail network on 26 July 2026.
The October event was therefore a later ceremonial cancellation of an existing issue, rather than the stamp’s first release into circulation.
