Stamps to mark royal visit to Guernsey

Guernsey Post will mark the King's official birthday on 14 June with the release of a special set of stamps commemorating the royal visit to Guernsey on 16 July 2024.

The stamp collection features six designs capturing key moments from the historic visit by King Charles and Queen Camilla, their first to the island since King Charles acceded to the throne.

Highlights include the King addressing guests at Les Cotils, planting a tree at the Government House and sampling a locally brewed beer named in his honour.

A miniature sheet will also be issued, depicting the King and Queen presiding over a special sitting of the States of Deliberation on Crown Pier.
