Jubilee Issue information


A complete set of Jubilees.
The 5-pence value includes emblems of the different nations of the UK.

The postage and revenue stamps of the United Kingdom issued in 1887 are known as the "Jubilee" issue because they were issued during the year of the Golden Jubilee of Queen Victoria to the throne in 1837.[1] They continued in use throughout the remainder of Victoria's reign, and many of the designs were reused in the stamps of Edward VII.[2] The Jubilee issue includes the first British stamps to be printed in two colours.
