The 10-cent denomination stamp was designed by Herman Herbert Schwartz and originally engraved by Silas Robert Allen, as evidenced by the horizontal lines that are indicative of traditional intaglio printing or line engraving. The pictorial collagefeatures the former Arms of Canada within a shield atop a bough of maple leaves, and flanked by four flags that represent Canada's different military contributions. An application of modern colour mimics the deep bright green colour of the original issue, which had an inscribed denomination of \"10 CENTS\". The obverse features the effigyof Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 1942-43 War Effort Issue\u003cbr\u003eOn July 1, 1942, the Post Office Department ofCanada introduced the War issue: a series of patriotic-themed stamps that highlighted the nation'scontributions to the Allied war effort, both at home and abroad. The special delivery stamp re-created on the coin's reverse features a collage of emblematic images that reflect pride in Canada's military contributions-from the flag of the Royal Canadian Air Force to the stylized version of the Arms of Canada. By the fall of 1946, 3,276,404 of these stamps had been printed at the Canadian Bank Note Company's facility in Ottawa where some of Canada's postage stamps are still produced today.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDid you knowÉ\u003cbr\u003eIssued between 1898 and 1946, Canada's special delivery stamps were used for express mail delivery (similar to Canada Post's Xpresspost today). \u003cbr\u003eCanada's final special delivery stamp (1946) was a peacetime version of this design. It featured a different-shaped shield, while laurel boughsreplaced the flags.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"J\u0026M Coins","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40785013801035,"sku":"RCM.CA.SV.CN.003076 - BC1888","price":150.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0556\/2872\/6347\/files\/false_f5c61821-e328-4d9c-92b3-2cda4575bbfc.jpg?v=1717053712","url":"https:\/\/jandmcoins.com\/products\/canada-silver-2019-d20-10-cent-stamp-coa-and-flags-pf-1_024oz_-_9999-bc1888","provider":"J\u0026M Coin \u0026 Jewellery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
