SCG8848 - Somaliland Protectorate – 1 Anna King George V (c.1912–1921)
1 in stock
This classic Somaliland Protectorate definitive features a finely engraved left-facing portrait of King George V, framed by laurel and oak motifs, and printed in a rich carmine-red shade. Issued during the early reign of George V, these overprinted and country-inscribed colonial issues are prized for their elegant typography and strong imperial design language. The bold “1A” (1 Anna) denomination is positioned in white tablets at the top corners, while the lower panel clearly reads SOMALILAND PROTECTORATE. Postmarked examples like this one often show clear strikes from Berbera or other regional offices, adding postal-history interest. A desirable piece for collectors of British Empire, African colonies, or early 20th-century engraved definitives.
