Question

Great Britain issued the world’s first adhesive postage stamp on which date?
  • 6th May 1840
  • 7th March 1840
  • 8th March 1867
  • 15th March 1889
Answer- A
In the wake of Queen Elizabeth's passing, Britain continues to replace items with those featuring the image of King Charles III.

The latest addition to this is a set of 'everyday' stamps which solely feature the king's head and value on a plain colored background.

The new stamps were unveiled for the first time and will be available for general sale starting from April.

This follows the replacement of coins, banknotes, and the official royal cypher used by the government with versions featuring the new monarch.
