M3023 – Algeria, 25 Different Stamps

Experience Algeria’s Deep History and North African Character with a 25-Stamp Collection

This packet of 25 different Algeria stamps offers a window into one of North Africa’s most historically rich and culturally layered nations. Stretching from the Mediterranean coast to the vast Sahara, Algeria’s identity has been shaped by ancient civilizations, Islamic scholarship, and centuries of trade across land and sea. Its stamps reflect this depth, often featuring bold design, strong color, and imagery rooted in heritage and national pride.

Selections will vary, but the one I looked through included stamps featuring:

• The city of Bejaia (also spelled Bougie) from the Views of Algeria before 1830 series
• Religious and military leader Emir Abdelkader El Djezairi
• Arch of the Admiralty in Algiers, also from the Views of Algeria before 1830 series
• A pitcher from Lakhdaria from the Traditional Pottery issue
• Stucco work from Sedrata, from a set on Algerian handicrafts
• Hamma Aqueduct in Algiers
• Coat of arms for the city of Algiers – includes a sailing ship, a crescent moon, a lion, and a cross
• Overprinted France stamp for use in Algeria depicting the well-known Sower (La Semeuse) design originally created by artist Oscar Roty.
• Independence from France – pictures a flag, rifle, and olive branch, symbolizing the revolution and return to peace
