The image of King Charles III that is to appear on new stamps from 4 April has been revealed by the Royal Mail. The minimalist, unadorned picture, with no crown on the stamp or any other decoration, was approved personally by the King. 📲 Full story:
"It was 70 years that we had the same monarch and since 1967 we've had pretty much the same stamps," said Mr Gold.
Britain's postage stamps are unique in not showing the name of the country, and the new stamps have nothing except the King's head, the price and also, now, an attached barcode.
