Jersey German Occupation Horse and Monogram Stamps

Jersey · 1941 · 0.5d and 3d

The image displays two stamps from Jersey's German occupation period: one featuring a horse's head with a tower in the background, and another depicting the 'GR' royal monogram with a crown.

These stamps were issued during the German occupation of Jersey in World War II. The inclusion of the 'GR' royal monogram on one stamp, despite the occupation, highlights the unique historical circumstances and administrative complexities of the period.
