Industry and Innovation in Victorian Britain

We mark two significant bicentenaries in 2019 – the birth of both Queen Victoria and that of her husband Prince Albert. Queen Victoria’s reign was the second longest in British royal history and the era named after her saw dramatic social, political and economic change. We mark this anniversary in collaboration with The Royal Mail - The Queen Victoria £5 Coin Cover features all 6 special stamps alongside the brand new official Queen Victoria Bicentenary £5 silver Proof coin. The beautifully illustrated inserts of the coin cover focus on the Victorian era of industry and innovation.
