Philatelic
ANK-Nummer
Catalog number from the Austria Netto Katalog (ANK), the standard identifier for Austrian postage stamps in collector contexts.
The Austria Netto Katalog (ANK) has been the central catalog for Austrian postage stamps in the German-speaking collector community since 1949. ANK numbers are assigned chronologically by issue date and serve as the standard reference in auction catalogs, sales listings, and collector forums dealing with Austrian philately.
Compared to the internationally common Michel catalog (Germany-focused) and the Scott catalog (US-focused), the ANK provides more detailed coverage of Austrian releases — including every Austrian crypto stamp edition from CS 1.0 (2019) onward. The ANK number is therefore the preferred identifier for crypto stamps in the Austrian and German-speaking collector market.
