AboutShow
The 1840 Two Penny Blue (SG5) is one of the world’s earliest postage stamps and a legendary rarity. Issued as the two-pence counterpart to the famous Penny Black, it features the classic profile of Queen Victoria in a rich blue shade. This superb Plate 1 example, lettered RJ, is beautifully cancelled with a striking red Maltese Cross. With good to large margins and exceptional detail, it embodies the artistry and innovation of Victorian-era postal history. Prized by collectors for its scarcity and historic significance, the Two Penny Blue stands as a cornerstone of philately and a timeless symbol of Britain’s pioneering role in global communication.
