The souvenir sheet is a joint issue between Spain and Turkey. The first stamp features <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collegiate_church_of_Santa_Mar%C3%ADa_la_Mayor" target="_blank">Church of Saint Mary the Great</a> in Toro, Zamora, Spain; and the second stamp features <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ortak%C3%B6y_Mosque" target="_blank">Ortaköy Mosque</a> in Istanbul, Turkey. The postmark date is 26 November 2012 and the location is Madrid.
