  • Comprises the six different 2/3d commemorative stamps issued from 1962 to 1965.
  • Also includes five FREE stamps – four 5d stamps and one 8d stamp!
  • Released late in the predecimal era, early in the reign of Queen Elizabeth II.
  • Offered in strictly Mint Unhinged condition.
  • Simply a must-have at this price! Click add to cart now!

Issued in the final days of the predecimal era, the short-lived 2/3d Commemorative Stamp Series was released only from 1962 to 1965. Provoked by a rise in airmail rates from 2/- to 2/3d, only six types were ever printed.

Airmail was little used in Australia, with the consequence that relatively few 2/3d stamps were ever issued. The low numbers printed – the rarest had a print run of just 995,440 – makes it particularly difficult to compile a complete set in premium condition. This is your chance.

Offered in strictly Mint Unhinged quality, we have all six stamps from the short-lived 2/3d commemorative stamp series available. As a bonus, we’ve also included five stamps that were issued to commemorate the same events as some of the 2/3d stamps!
