Summary/Abstract: Perhaps unfairly, the category of common stamps has been sidelined by researchers in the world of philately. The causes could be many: mintage was very high (sometimes unknown), reproduction of well-known images, fashionable at the time, which did not aroused any interest, nominal "on schedule" values, allowing the franking of many categories of mail and postal services, thus many pieces were encountered on the market. And the list could continue.I stopped on this issuance for personal reasons, because I met a few varieties on the market that have sparked discussion and controversy in the small sphere of philatelist researchers from Romania, who are trying to survive nowadays. In this article I will present the results of a study that I conducted between 2012-2016, materialized in a page from my personal philatelic catalogue, which is constantly updated and available in the online environment.
