Since 1980 China began a series of postage stamp releases to mark the Chinese Zodiac at Chinese New Year starting with the celebrated Golden Monkey. The stamp is remarkable in stamp trading terms for the fact that five million copies were printed, ensuring that will not become rare any time soon, and yet well-kept copies and especially multiples are highly valuable.
