Belize Mint Stamps – Belize New Stamps – Belize Post Office Stamps Belize was the site of several Mayan city states until their decline at the end of the first millennium. A.D. The British and Spanish disputed the region in the 17th and 18th centuries; it formally became the colony of British Honduras in 1854. Territorial disputes between the UK and Guatemala delayed the independence of Belize until 1981. The first stamps appeared in 1973 and were overprints on British Honduras. Since then topical stamps have been predominant with fish stamps, bird stamps, shell stamps, Olympic stamps and Christmas stamps predominant. Early issues have overprints and are often quite elusive. Stamps from the early 1980’s for Rotary Club, Independence Anniversary, Christmas and Princess Diana are particularly elusive. New issue stamps are easy to obtain but stamps issued during the years 1985 through the year 2000 are more difficult to find as dealers stocks are very limited in this area. In 1984 stamps for Cayes of Belize were issued but these were ended in 1985. New issues stamps of Belize are available from Herrick Stamps Company automatic new issue service or our illustrated new issue bulletins which are posted on our website, www.herrickstamp.com every two weeks. |
