Re: Question for the Austrian and Czech stamps

As for the Czech stamps, one IRC is equal to one stamp for 17 crowns (korun) and the same stamp (of the same value) you need for mailing a letter weighing up to 20 grams from the Czech Republic to other European countries.
They don't look the same, there are several versions of them, so I can't really tell you what they look like, usually it is a white stamp with a colourful picture (usually a flower or a horoscope sign, but as I said, it could be anything) on it and the number 17 K? and there's written: ?eská republika.
As for Austrian stamps, I was last buying them a year ago, so I hope their price didn't increase, but for sending a letter up to 20 gramps to Europe you need a 65 cents stamp. That should be also the same value of the stamp that is equal to one IRC. The ones I bought were yellow and had a flower on them and number 65c and there's Österreich written on them.
Hope this helped
