It's a commemorative stamp of 8.50 Rubles from 2011. Do stamps fall under PD-Russia?

See warning from PD-RU-exempt - the "... Russian official document, state symbol or sign (postage stamps, coins and banknotes mainly) may incorporate one or more works that can be copyrightable if separated from this document, symbol or sign. In such a case, this work is not an object of copyright if reused in its entirety but, at the same time, extracting specific portions from this work could constitute copyright infringement. For example, the denomination and country name must be preserved on postage stamps." The many of Russian postage stamps are uncopyrightable der.works from copyrightable works. We can freely create der.works from the Russian stamps, but when someone makes crop version of PD-exempt stamp, he/she does not create new der. work from PD-exempt stamp, he/she try to edit unfree original. Real author of the Russian stamp and its employer have lost all copyrights on stamp (even right of authorship), but they have preserved copyrights on any other usage of original image. In same manner: we can edit free photowork of the Russian copyrightable building, but we can not build copy of respective building; movie as whole from RSFSR can pass to PD before script and/or music from it, and we can edit such movie as movie, but we can not do "reverse engineering" for script and/or music from it.
