On June 5, 2012, the Post Authority of the Solomon Islands issued more than 70 mini-sheets, one of them depicting some dinosaurs. Each mini-sheet is on sale for Euro 5 to Euro 10 about (!) Hard to believe these stamps with face value of SBD 9 (Euro 1.0) - $27(Euro 3.0) can be used for postage at all, in the country with average income of Euro 200 a month. Very likely no one on the Islands even saw any of these stamps.

You can see the flood of minisheets of Solomon Islands on PostBeeld and Stamperija sites.
