Rhodesia & Nyasaland – Scott # 152, used

Description

This is a used example of Rhodesia & Nyasaland Scott #152, a definitive issue from the Federation of Rhodesia and Nyasaland (1953–1963). The stamp features a formal portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, presented in the classic British Commonwealth style used across many mid-20th-century colonial issues.

Issued in the late 1950s, this higher-denomination value was part of the federation’s regular definitive series and reflects the political structure of the era. Stamps from Rhodesia & Nyasaland are of particular interest to collectors due to the federation’s short lifespan, making its postal issues a clearly defined and historically significant group.

This example is postally used, with visible cancellation, and is suitable for collections focused on African colonial history, Commonwealth definitives, or Queen Elizabeth II portrait stamps.
