•  Oppose Anyone could scan any one of tens of thousands of stamps like this, so no wow. Image has been captured with the bottom half of the stamp under a stamp mount altering the colour and texture (see left shoulder). Poor quality printing (misaligned colours) and poor centering mean the stamp isn't even a valuable example of the issue. Possible perforation damage top right corner.

  No tens of thousands of stamps - this is the best stamp of 1964. The postage stamp was placed on the scanner glass, no a stamp mount. Perforation is good. All arguments are insignificant. Matsievsky (talk) 13:15, 11 November 2022 (UTC)

• Sorry about suggesting it was scanned with a stamp mount; but if the stamp was placed directly on the scanner then the stamp must be stained as there is color variation where there shouldn't be. This by no definition the 'best stamp of 1964'. There are many more valuable stamps from the Soviet Union issued in 1964; never mind other years and other countries. You couldn't sell your copy for more than €1/$1. I have deleted the 'best stamp' claim from Wikipedia. Charlesjsharp (talk) 18:02, 11 November 2022 (UTC)

  I don't understand your reasoning about "color variation". This is the best postage stamp in the artistic sense, not in the price sense. And it wasn't my idea, this 1964 public decision is spread all over the Internet. Matsievsky (talk) 18:55, 11 November 2022 (UTC)

•  Oppose per Charles, plus it's not even particularly high resolution and way below the 2 Mpx threshold. --El Grafo (talk) 13:03, 11 November 2022 (UTC)

  It is not necessary to have 2 Mpx, here is a special case of a small 2D art miniature. This 2D art miniature has a large (in some sense maximum) resolution of 600 dpi. Matsievsky (talk) 13:20, 11 November 2022 (UTC)

•  Oppose per others. Daniel Case (talk) 03:11, 16 November 2022 (UTC)
