but what? 
I do agree that they are a bit boring, but they are engraved too, and you can really feel it when you touch them.
Macron’s Marianne:
Hollande’s Marianne
Sarkozy’s Marianne
Chirac’s Marianne
And you know what; all of these Marianne will be destroyed in January 2023… It will be impossible to get these Marianne in post offices, instead, we’ll get these very charming and poetic stickers ;(
Yea Here in China.We still issuing engraved stamps in now days. Welcome pm me for swap if you interested.
But I am more into this kind of relievo ones
Wow! I didn’t know Marianne’s where different under each president,
I love them like the UK Queen definitive stamps.
Noooo! They are being replaced by boring labels! 
No engraved stamps, but I remember a few years back we had beaded stamps. Let’s see if I can find a picture.
Some months ago I found these beautiful “engraved” (they were offset prints of an engraved stamp) stamps issued in 2014. I bought as many as I could of the $470 one, but I have run out of them and haven’t been able to find any more 
I have also found this block sheet, it went directly into my collection!
Whew, I thought it was only me being weird by feeling them up a bit!
(But I do beadwork so my fingertips like to feel texture)
These stamps are gorgeous! I don’t really understand what “relievo” means… Are these stamps engraved?
Wait, how big were these stamps?
Are they real stamps? And 10 Singaporian dollars for one stamp is a bit expansive, isn’t it?
Yes they are real stamps. However I think they are more of collectors’ items.
I certainly wouldn’t use them!
You could use them to mail packages if you really wanted to.

They are not engraved.But is relief one.Sorry wrong word😌
Very nice, thank you! Is it intaglio?
We still get intaglio printed stamps occasionally. I noticed that they usually have a historical theme, like this one.
Indeed, French Polynesia stamps are “produced” by Philaposte, which likes to use this technique.
Your last sentence is incorrect. In the UK, only non-QR code stamps issued since decimalization in 1971 that feature a portrait of Queen Elizabeth are invalid for use after July 31, 2023. With a few narrow exceptions, all decimal era commemoratives, special issues and Christmas stamps will continue to be valid for use.
