The new items being released today are: As noted above, two of the new stamps were not listed on the Philatelic Program for 2025: the stamps for Saint John Henry Newman and Indonesia. In addition, one stamp on the 2025 program have yet to be released: the “Centenary of the Foundation of the Pontifical Institute of Christian Archaeology” (a joint issue with Luxembourg). It is unclear as to whether the stamp has been delayed or eliminated from this year’s program.
