Sunday Stamps: Reptiles/snakes

Good day, and welcome to another cool cloudy Sunday in the American Midwest.

It's time for Sunday Stamps.

It's Lunar New Year and the beginning of the Year of the Snake, and the USPS has issued stamps for the occasion.  As requested by Finnbadger, here is the scan of the full sheet, from the USPS:


Their scan of one stamp:



The USPS calls this a mask of a snake, but it sure doesn't look like one.  And the foil aspects of the stamps don't come through in these scans.
Happy Lunar New Year!

I also don't know how you can call this a mask. I wonder if they thought a snake mask would put people off? I read that other snake stamps were not popular.
