Series
The series consists of 150 different cards with the coats of arms of countries, but also German, Italian and US States.
The series has been issued with at least 4 different backs, but I don't know whether each card has been issued with each back. I do not (yet) have a single card with all 4 backs, nut several with 3 backs.
