In the 1840s, the UK overhauled its postal system with the introduction of postage stamps. Before the Penny Black, postal rates and systems were complex and inconsistent. These prepaid stamps streamlined postal codes and charges. Provident Metals now offers the 2024 Proof Gibraltar One Crown Two Pence Blue 1 oz Silver Coins.
Highlights:
Each 2024 Proof Gibraltar One Crown Two Pence Blue 1 oz Silver Coin showcases proof visuals and a colorized reverse. The blue background pays tribute to the paper color of the Two Pence Blue stamp. Coins are housed in a presentation box and include a Certificate of Authenticity.
Obverse
The obverse of the 2024 Proof Gibraltar One Crown Two Pence Blue Silver Coin displays a bust of King Charles III. Many Commonwealth Nations are transitioning their currency to feature Charles III, succeeding Queen Elizabeth II. Charles III, the eldest child of Elizabeth II, is shown in left-profile relief without a crown. The inscriptions include CHARLES III, D.G. REX. F.D., GIBRALTAR, 2024, and 1 CROWN.
Reverse
The reverse side of the 2024 Proof One Crown Two Pence Blue 1 oz Silver Coin replicates the Two Penny Blue stamp. The original stamp featured Queen Victoria’s profile, based on Henry Corbould’s sketch derived from William Wyon’s medal. The blue-inked stamp included “POSTAGE” at the top and “TWO PENCE” at the bottom, all details accurately replicated here.
History
There were two main printings of the Two Penny Blue. The first printing, known as the “white lines” variant, had white lines above and below the “POSTAGE” and “TWO PENCE” lettering. The second printing, issued in 1841, removed these white lines.
