Egyptian Stamp Mistake


Suez Canal Stamp w/ Panama Canal Pic

(Cairo, Egypt)
Egyptians on social media have derided a stamp that was supposed to depict the nation’s famous Suez Canal but instead showed the Panama Canal – situated over 11,500 km away.

The new series of stamps had been commissioned to mark a new $8.4bn Suez Canal project which will run alongside the existing 145-year-old historic waterway.
Oops! An Egyptian official said the mistake would be corrected.
