Estonia issued these 3-Lions definitive stamps from 1999 to 2004. Scott lists 21 major numbers, and 6 minor numbers.
I think they're fun to collect because the designs are easy on the eyes, they have perforation, ink shade, and date varieties, and also useful selvage inscriptions.
For each release, the year-date was in only one of the two places shown below. On the senti values, the year-date is at bottom center. On the Kroon values, there's a line of microprinting across that area, so the year was printed under the lower left paw.
