Belarus Azerbaijan Joint issue

On December 3rd 2015 Belarus and Azerbaijan jointly issued a stamp on "Space for IT - Technologies".  The miniature sheet contains 2 oval shaped stamps and they used the technology of Thermal stamping by metalized foil of silver colour. 

One stamp depicts Azerbaijan's telecommunications satellite "Azerspace1" and the other depicts the Space Craft of Belarus "DZZ".  I got this Miniature sheet from Karina Borisevich of Belarus for our swap. Unfortunately, the letters printed with silver colour are looking black in the scan :-(.

Thanks a lot Karina it is a nice addition to both "Flights of Fancy" and "Odd and Unique stamps" themes.
