Until I received this Mini-Me Hungary sheet today, I didn't realize there were two sizes to these stamps. And quite frankly, I never knew about countries that issued the same stamps in more than one size. Scott: Year 1963 B230-B233 SP128 Dimensions 32 x 43mm Scott: Year 1963 B233b (B230-B233) SP128 Dimensions 25 x 32mm

Another good guess from the parting gift, this souvenir sheet from 2012 issued by the Central African Republic featuring orchids, which I would have bought from them eventually:

This lovely FDC features the two Gardenia stamps that Canada issued on February 14, 2019. The backside has a brief description of the flower. Seven thousand service official first-day covers were franked with both of the booklet stamps and with a postmark from Flower’s Cove, Newfoundland. Scott 3169-3170 A1297
