Ajman

Ajman is a country in Eastern Arabia.  File:Ajman official.jpg|1964 official stamp. File:Ajman Olympics.jpg|1968 Olympics stamp. 
 * In June 1964, it issued its first stamps. With control of its stamps program sold to a private company, Ajman began issuing a flood of issues, becoming known as one of the so-called Sand dunes countries. Some issues were legitimately used, but most were produced for collectors with many unneeded varieties like imperfs. A large number of issues probably exist only as CTOs.
 * In late 1966, it adopted Dubai/Qatar dirham and riyal currency.
 * In July 1971, it joined the Trucial States, continuing to issue its own stamps.
 * In December 1971, Ajman joined the United Arab Emirates (UAE). The UAE's first stamps were issued in February 1972 but Ajman did not adopt UAE stamps until the January 1973 definitive issue. Ajman new issues were not formally stopped by the UAE until August 1972. Meanwhile, Sharjah stamps were still being produced well into that year, and Ajman stamps are reported used as late as April 1973.
