In the 19th century, the United Kingdom became the first nation to introduce postage stamps. At the time, postal rates were varied and confusing throughout the UK and an effort was undertaken to establish uniform rates and prepayment for postage in the form of stamps. The Penny Black is famous as the first-ever adhesive postage stamp, but its history is shorter than that of its successor. Now, 2024 1 oz Proof Gibraltar Silver One Crown Penny Red Coins are available online from JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
The development of postage stamps in the UK was part of a broader postal reform led by Rowland Hill in the late 1830s. Hill proposed a uniform penny postage rate and the concept of prepayment using adhesive stamps. The first step in this process was the release of the Penny Black on May 1, 1840.
The Penny Red was introduced in February 1841, just nine months after the Penny Black. It was designed to address issues with the Penny Black and became one of the longest-running stamp series in postal history.
King Charles III is depicted in the obverse design of 2024 1 oz Proof Silver One Crown Penny Red Coins. His Majesty is shown in all coin portraits in left-profile relief in keeping with British tradition that sees monarch currency portraits switch orientation from one to the next. As Queen Elizabeth II was featured in right-profile relief throughout her reign, Charles III will be featured in left-profile relief.
For the reverse of the 2024 Proof Gibraltar Silver One Crown Penny Reds, you’ll find a replication of the postage stamp of the same name. Introduced in 1841, the design was the same as the Penny Black stamp. It features a portrait of Queen Victoria in left-profile relief and features inscriptions of POSTAGE and ONE PENNY, just as was featured on the stamps.
These 2024 1 oz Proof Gibraltar Silver One Crown Penny Red Coins are available with presentation boxes. Each coin comes with a Certificate of Authenticity and features proof visuals. This includes frosted devices and mirrored fields. The background of the reverse is red, just like the Penny Red stamp.
