Isle of Man Queen Elizabeth II Regional Issue

Under Review

Description: The unsevered mint block of six showcases an iconic, left-facing photographic portrait of a youthful Queen Elizabeth II wearing a ornate royal tiara and matching drop earrings. Enclosing the photographic royal vignette is a deep olive-sepia or olive-brown border decorated with an intricate, continuous Celtic-style chain link or knotwork frame along three edges. Nestled cleanly into the upper-left corner of each design is the distinctive national shield of the island, displaying the legendary three-legged triskelion emblem. The lower border completes each stamp layout with a uniform block-font inscription reading "POSTAGE" immediately adjacent to a prominent white "4d" fourpence denomination text.

Circa: 1958

Condition: Mint block of 6
