Issued by Mexico in 1940, this 5c commemorative marks the 100th anniversary of the world’s first postage stamp, the 1840 British Penny Black. The design features a stylized reproduction of Queen Victoria’s profile set in a golden frame, rendered in a Mexican artistic style. Text along the borders highlights “Centenario del Primer Timbre Postal en el Mundo – Inglaterra, Mayo 6 de 1840.” A popular classic-era thematic issue, it is well-regarded for its crisp typography and historical significance, connecting Mexican postal heritage to global philatelic origins. Highly collectible for Penny Black tribute specialists and world classics enthusiasts.
