This EUROPA First Day Cover features our 2025 EUROPA stamp marking the theme of National Archaeological Discoveries. Chosen from the Age of the Sea Kings collection, the stamp highlights the reign of Rognvald and Olaf Godredsson, key figures in the medieval Kingdom of Man and the Isles.
Designed in collaboration with Manx artist Juan Moore and historian Professor R. Andrew McDonald, the Age of the Sea Kings collection explores the rulers who shaped this powerful maritime realm from 1079 to 1265. The EUROPA stamp draws on this collection, specifically focusing on Rognvald and Olaf's turbulent reigns and their significant roles in the kingdom’s history.
The EUROPA First Day Cover bears two of the £2.26 EUROPA stamps, postmarked with the date of issue, making it a special collectable for both stamp enthusiasts and those with an interest in the history of the Isle of Man. Inside, you'll find informative text explaining the broader context of the Age of the Sea Kings and the key historical figures featured on the stamp.
