The Mary Rose Collection
In addition to our Mary Rose First Day tribute, we have also produced this beautiful medal cover to celebrate her 500th anniversary.
The Mary Rose was Henry VIII's favourite ship, and you can see why - she must have looked quite an impressive sight out on the open sea.
Our Covers
We have worked again with The Mary Rose Trust to produce this cover, which features their stunning medal. There are three stamps on the cover: the first is a 1982 Mary Rose 15½p, the second is the Henry VIII stamp from the House of Tudor issue 21 April 2009 and the final one is a stamp and label taken from our very own Mary Rose stamp sheet. All three are cancelled with our official Mary Rose Trust, Porstmouth, postmark.
We also have a fantastic signature: Chief Executive of The Mary Rose Trust, Rear Admiral John Lippiett (Ret'd), has very kindly agreed to sign a limited number for us and we're absolutely delighted!
If you are a member of one of our Coin Clubs, this cover will automatically have been reserved for you.
IF YOU'RE A CLUB MEMBER: Don't forget that when ordering any current or future unsigned covers, you'll automatically receive them at our special Club rate. This won't of course apply to older issues.
Our Mary Rose First Day Cover
To coincide with the House of Tudor stamps issued on 14th April 2009 we have produced a First Day Cover featuring the miniature sheet. The inspiration for the cover was the Mary Rose, which is featured on one of the stamps, and it would sit very nicely alongside your beautiful coin cover! Don't miss out - book yours today!
Mary Rose Stamp Sheet
As part of our Mary Rose 500th Anniversary series, we've produced this stunning Stamp Sheet Presentation Pack. We've worked again with The Mary Rose Trust to produce the sheet and we think you'll agree it's something quite special.
