Description: This vibrant orange-tangerine postage stamp presents a classic three-quarter portrait of Queen Elizabeth II facing slightly left while wearing a glittering tiara and a royal necklace. The upper-right corner features the royal cypher "EⅡR", and the lower-left corner indicates the denomination value "1d". The bottom edge displays the capitalized inscription "NEW ZEALAND" flanked by a cluster of the Southern Cross stars on the lower right and native Kowhai blossoms elegantly hanging in the upper-left corner. The surface is heavily crossed by dark, parallel horizontal wavy lines from a mechanical post office sorting cancellation.
