- In 1966 this set of eight stamps was released commemorating the 900th Anniversary of the Battle of Hastings in the UK. We take a closer look at them and also examine a rare flaw in the printing process on one of the stamps that makes it worth a bit of money.

Stay connected dear 😊
I'm sorry to report sad news a collector johncollectsstamps has passed away last Tuesday 13th June, as to many of us he made some lovely and informative video's of his collection. He will be forever missed by our community. I think he was in his 50's.
Oh no! That's terrible news, I was only watching one of his videos the other day. I enjoyed John's channel, he had such a wonderful collection and his videos were really informative. That's such a loss to our community. RIP
Nice error stamp, SG are quite ambitious with their pricing aren't they.
This is a part of my childhood stamp album I find quite frustrating. There's so many different shapes, blocks and strips they produced through the 60s up until when I was born in January 70 when they made the cottage stamps an odd size then everything stayed nice and consistent until that big 1980 50p which is where my serious collection stops.
It was almost like they couldn't decide what size to print. It makes that part of my album look a bit messy, like this strip of 6 battle of Hastings has to go in diagonally across a whole page.
I personally don't own this set, just the flaws. The change in size of some stramps over the years has pleased me as I have a stock book that contains a collection of world stamps not arranged in any particular order, but more so as a piece of art, with big alongside small, old alongside new, dull alongside bright. I think you might have convinced me to buy se-tenant strip purely for the unique diagonal display style. 👍👍
According to some reports, Harold wasn't killed by the arrow. He survived the battle and made his way to the North, where his wife had a large estate. The same wife who had to identify Harold's body and could only do so by his tattoos. This 'theory' is backed up by a plaque in Chester Cathedral stating that Harold retired there, as a monk, when he escaped the Normans. The 'arrow in the eye' theory is based on the translation of the script on the tapestry which claims Harold is killed just above the figure with the arrow. However, if the script is read fully, the "Harold is killed" section refers to a character being hacked to death by Norman soldiers. This would tie in with the report that Harold could only be identified by his 'tattoos' and not his face.
I like this theory. The one around the 'hacking to death' is, I believe, the one most widely credited by historians today. That the Norman conquerors would suppress 'the gory details', and have the 'arrow in the eye' believed by the English populace, ie. that Harold was slain by 'pure chance', would help to pacify the conquered nation, and would also big Harold up as an 'unlucky hero'. Expert liars, those Normans, and their descendants are still up to it today!
I'd read that the arrow theory might have been fake, I wonder what Hollywood would do if they ever fancied giving it a go!
@@coinsstampsandcollectibles3552 They would tie him in with Hereward the Wake. Which could actually be true as Hereward doesn't appear in the 'system' until 3 years AFTER the battle of Hastings. 😎
