World Stamp Today:
FEBRUARY 04, 2022
Royal Mail released eight stamps that celebrate the late Queen Elizabeth's Platinum Jubilee.
The Queen's 70th anniversary of ascending to the throne was featured on the February 4, 2022 stamps.
She was the first British monarch to reach the milestone. Her reign was captured on photographs, with the images on the stamps ranging from the years 1957 to 2020.
Her official duties were highlighted - from Trooping the Colour and walkabouts in the UK to her international visits.
Simon Thompson, the chief executive of Royal Mail, said: "These stamps are a celebration of the second Elizabethan Age and a tribute to a remarkable lifetime of duty and public service." Queen Elizabeth II passed away on September 8, 2022.
