I already know that stamps are not allowed to be here on Numista, but there seems to be a certain class of stamps that blur some cataloging lines on this site. To many philatelists, they are not really stamps. And so far, not a lot of websites seem to have given these replicas a home. Here is an example if you are confused. Thanks, and have a nice day.
We can't simply call everything a medal just because it's out of metal and doesn't fit anywhere.

I know nothing about those but from the photo I understood it seemed emitted for the first day of release of the stamp, so it may qualify as a commemorative medal somehow. What I say is that we accept many different things in Exonumia (plaques, apothecary weights, bullion,…) ; we shouldn't exclude something just because it celebrates stamps and we do not reference actual stamps here.
I understand this kind of “stamps” are really thin. They really look like a stamp (except that they are made of metal), not a medal. I'd rather not include them on Numista.

This is the token/medal included with the 1999 BU coin set. It has the thickness of other mint tokens, just an irregular shape for the 150th anniversary of first Belgian stamp.So this one for sure deserves to stay in the catalogue.
Though I'm quite sure this one does not really belong here N#380197, clearly being a stamp … (weight 0,1g!)
Just call me Bram
No new swaps for the moment, still too many half-ongoing swaps to clean up!
