United Kingdom · 2023 · Various (1st Class, 2nd Class, etc.)

This definitive stamp series features a simple, unadorned profile portrait of King Charles III, facing left. The design, based on a sculpture by Martin Jennings, intentionally omits a crown or any other royal insignia, reflecting a modern and streamlined approach to British definitive stamps. The background is a plain, solid color that varies with the denomination.

Issued in 2023, these are the first definitive stamps of King Charles III's reign, marking the transition from the iconic Machin definitive series that featured Queen Elizabeth II for over five decades.
