SG Sakura Michel Year Air Particulars MUH Mint MNG Fine Usd Used Stamps without gum A large number of early Japanese stamps were issued without gum - [NG]. These stamps, in the condition in which they were issued, are listed as MUH. These stamps, which have been hinged, are listed as Mint. These stamps, which have been obviously washed, are listed as MNG. The MNG category is almost exclusively for stamps which were issued with gum but which has been washed off.

It can be brittle.
