Rare Surface Printed stamps
Surface printed stamps first appeared in 1855, they were printed by De La Rue, and subsequently became the standard type. In 1870 the British ½d (halfpenny) and 1½d (penny halfpenny - pronounced pennyhaypny or threehaypence) engraved stamps were the last engraved types of Queen Victoria; the next would not appear until 1913. Surface-printed stamps of the 1860s and 1870s all used the same profile of Victoria, but a variety of frames, watermarks, and corner lettering. It's another genre of rare British stamps.
