King Charles' silhouette features on a new set of stamps - marking a major milestone in British philatelic history.
The monarch's uncrowned profile, in silver and facing to the right in the top left hand corner, appears on a collection of 10 special stamps celebrating the nation's favourite flowers. Unlike Queen Elizabeth's famous silhouette, the King is not wearing a laurel wreath.
The late Queen's silhouette - with her laurel wreath - has featured on special stamps since 1966. An updated design by David Gentleman was used from 1968, adapted from Mary Gillick's original cameo portrait of the monarch used on coins.
