Magnet | Queen Elizabeth II First Series Hong Kong Definitive Stamp [High Denomination]

This design is from a Hong Kong stamp issued in 1954, marking Queen Elizabeth II's first set of definitive stamps for Hong Kong (prior to this, Hong Kong and other Commonwealth nations jointly issued the 1953 Coronation Commemorative Stamp set). This set is commonly referred to as the Queen Elizabeth II First Series stamps. The design of these stamps was largely consistent with those of King George VI and Queen Victoria. There were 14 denominations in total (5c, 10c, 15c, 20c, 25c, 30c, 40c, 50c, 65c, $1, $1.30, $2, $5, $10). The stamps were eventually replaced by the Second Series stamps in 1962. This classic stamp design was also reissued as a commemorative stamp in 1978 for the Queen's Silver Jubilee.
