King Christian X of Denmark and Iceland

Iceland · 1920 · 10 Aurar

This definitive stamp features a right-facing portrait of King Christian X, who reigned over both Denmark and Iceland. The design is framed by ornate scrollwork, with the country name 'ÍSLAND' at the top and the denomination '10 AUR' at the bottom.

Issued shortly after the Danish-Icelandic Act of Union of 1918, which recognized Iceland as a fully sovereign state in a personal union with Denmark under a common king.
