Edward VIII Stamp & Coin Cover
Issued in 1996 when the Post Office were on strike in this country, Coincraft were legally allowed to issue our own Postal Strike Stamps. We issued six different stamps featuring the actual Edward VIII coins that we owned at the time, Penny, Sixpence, Halfcrown and Crown plus two obverses of Edward VIII. Unused examples of the stamps are affixed to a cover for the 60th anniversary of his abdication. The cover also contains a proof-like uncirculated example of the cupro-nickel ‘crown’ that we issued. So, for the first time in years, we are able to offer our important and historic Edward VIII Coin and stamp postal strike cover. Supplies are limited and you should try and get one.
