The solution is that you need to resync your primary key fields as reported by "Hacking Life" who wrote an example SQL code but, as suggested by "Ad N" is better to run the Django command sqlsequencereset to get the exact SQL code that you can copy and past or run with another command.

As a further improvement to these answers I would suggest to you and other reader to dont' copy and paste the SQL code but, more safely, to execute the SQL query generated by sqlsequencereset from within your python code in this way (using the default database):

from django.core.management.color import no_style
from django.db import connection

from myapps.models import MyModel1, MyModel2


sequence_sql = connection.ops.sequence_reset_sql(no_style(), [MyModel1, MyModel2])
with connection.cursor() as cursor:
    for sql in sequence_sql:
        cursor.execute(sql)

I tested this code with Python3.6, Django 2.0 and PostgreSQL 10.
