🇨🇶 Issues inscribed Sark -

27 August 2025 - 80th anniversary of the liberation of Sark from Nazi German occupation & the Royal Visit of The Princess Anne and Admiral Timothy Lawrence - 8 stamps and 1 limited edition miniature sheet. Publicity put out by Guernsey Post for this issue included an illustration of the 69p value with the incorrect spelling of ‘Soldiers’ as ‘Soliders’. There was a delay to Guernsey Post despatching this issue because, it was reported, Buckingham Palace’s approval of the issue was delayed. We may speculate that this delay was attributable to the Palace officials discovering the spelling error.

  I have now received the set of stamps and miniature sheet I ordered from Guernsey stamps and both ordinary stamp from sheets and that contained in the miniature sheet have the correct spelling of Soldiers. And that would seem to be the end of that.
