Stamps featuring the Seal of the President of the Republic of the Philippines – series 3

The original stamps were issued on April 5, 2001 as part of the Presidential seal definitive series. Sales of the stamps were stopped and remainders recalled and sent to the stamp vaults upon the discovery of forgeries in early 2002. With the pressing need for P1.00 and P6.00 stamps, part of over 28,000.000 stamps in storage were taken out of the stamp vault and surcharged with the new values.
