Ashley Sorry, no idea as I do not have the Stanley catalog for Russia. I would be surprised if the two catalogs had them in a different order but I am not able to confirm. There are a lot of much wiser folks on this forum that may be able to chime in! Mike
Kherson has the vertical column of windows. Vorontsov is the skinny plain white column. Temryuk is the thick hexagon. Novorossiisk has horizontal red stripes and Dnieper is the red & black lighthouse.
First, in your picture of the set, you need to swap the positions of stamps 3 and 4 to get the stamps in the correct Scott order.
I don't know Russian either, but I actually did the work and found the answer to your snooty question, and found the Gibbons order of the five stamps. However, I deleted my reply with the answer rather than post it. Too many people are used to being fed so much that they don't know how to fish for themselves. If you want me to do the work for you, I'll be happy to do it for you, but just like how you have to pay for your food, you'll have to pay me $100 to give you the answers.
I'll give you a couple of clues, though, and you still don't need to know Russian to do this. Compare the picture in Gibbons of a stamp from that set, it is of #5292, and it is lilac in color. Now looking at Scott, I see that is #5108. Rats. I gave you an answer. That's okay. It was an appetizer sampler.
So, how can you figure out the other four? Three really since the last one will fall in place by itself. Now, let me see...I still don't know any Russian, but maybe I can figure something out...Oh I know, I'll do a Google search of the name of each of the lighthouses, "Vorontsov Lighthouse" for example. The results will be astounding. But, I'll let you do the work to see for yourself.

Maybe this helps from Scott catalog Vol 5?
Do they have their stamps in the same order as Stanley Gibbons then?

#5292 Kherson
#5293 Vorontsov
#5294 Temryuk
#5295 Novorossiisk
#5296 Dneiper
I think he is asking for which one of the five pictures of the lighthouses goes with which Scott or Stanley Catalog number?
