Australia 1990 Queen Elizabeth II Definitive

Australia · 1990 ·

This definitive stamp features a right-facing portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, based on a photograph by John Lawrence. The design is simple and elegant, focusing on the monarch's profile against a solid color background, with the country name 'AUSTRALIA' and the denomination at the bottom. This series was a workhorse of Australian mail for nearly a decade.

Issued during the reign of Queen Elizabeth II, this definitive series reflects Australia's continuing status as a constitutional monarchy and member of the Commonwealth of Nations at the time.
