A beautifully engraved Great Britain 1966 Christmas issue, featuring the Three Wise Men (Magi) carrying gifts, designed in a rich medieval illuminated-manuscript style. Issued during the early QEII Christmas series, the stamp shows intricate detailing in the robes, crowns, and gold vessels, along with the iconic gold silhouette of Queen Elizabeth II at right. Denominated 1/6 (one shilling and six pence), this high-value commemorative was printed in brilliant multicolor with exceptional clarity. A desirable classic for collectors of British Christmas issues, Biblical themes, and QEII period art.
