Stamps From Cantharidia

These stamps are denominated in the old fashioned British 'tuppence,'
which means 'two cents.'  I have taken the artistic liberty of making
Cantharidia a stamp issuing micronation based on a Brittanic model.
Some of the stamps of Cantharidia are earmarked with denominations
of a shilling, which is designated by '1/-', etc.
