Collection Value of the Monkey Stamp: The 1980 Monkey Stamp was the first zodiac stamp issued by the People's Republic of China. Since then, China has issued a zodiac monkey stamp every 12 years. Today, the price of the 1980 Monkey Stamp has increased tens of thousands of times, from its original issue price (face value) of 8 fen to about 12,000 yuan, with a full sheet reaching approximately 1.5 million yuan.


Secondly, rarity makes something valuable, and a small Fa Xing Liang is a definite catalyst for price increases. Before 1980, the print run for general commemorative and special stamps rarely exceeded three to four million pieces per design. As this was the first stamp in the Chinese zodiac series, it was originally planned to issue 8 million pieces. However, considering that stamp collecting activities had just resumed and people's awareness of stamp collecting had not yet awakened, after repeated deliberation, it was changed to 5 million pieces. Coupled with printing difficulties, the yield was relatively low, and only 4,431,600 pieces passed inspection.

As the full sheet monkey stamp acquisition price continues to rise, a large number of counterfeits have also appeared on the market. To protect the rights and interests of collectors, Gu Jin Jian Bao provides professional free appraisal and evaluation. Below is a comparison table of the core features for identifying genuine 1980 Monkey Stamps summarized by our expert team:

Appraisal Dimension Characteristics of Genuine 1980 T46 Monkey Stamp Characteristics of Common Forgeries / Counterfeit Monkey Stamps
Engraving Tactile (Core) Uses purely hand-engraved plates, with raised ink layers on the surface. Lightly touching the monkey's fur and black lines reveals an extremely noticeable rough, scratchy feel and three-dimensionality. Mostly flat or offset printed, with a smooth surface and no raised features. Even if there are simulated embossed lines, they feel stiff and lack depth when touched.
Monkey Fur and Line Details The monkey fur lines are fine, sharp, and distinct, with deep, glossy ink. Under magnification, the edges of the engraved lines are clear, with no blurring. Lines are blurry, fuzzy, or even merge into blocks. The ink color is dull, and under magnification, offset printing's characteristic dot patterns are often visible.
Gold Powder Luster Performance The gold powder accentuating the monkey's eyes, nose, mouth, and ears is of high purity, exhibiting a natural, subdued yet dazzling true gold luster that remains bright over time. The gold powder is often dark, grayish, or coppery in color, or uses overly glaring, unnatural reflective materials to conceal flaws.
Paper Material and Gum Uses special stamp paper, which is tough and stiff. The original factory gum is evenly applied and, after decades, usually presents a natural yellowish hue. The paper is often thin, soft, or uses modern brightening agents to appear overly white. The gum is mostly applied later, often showing brush marks or uneven gumming.
Background Color and Font Edges The classic"Chinese Red"background color is rich and uniform; the edges of the"China Ren Min You Zheng"(China Post) text and the"8 Fen"(8 fen) face value are clean and crisp, without burrs. The red background often has color variations (darker or more orangey-red), and under magnification, the font edges often show ink bleed or uneven edges.
