Below is a stamp released by Canada on 1 July 1942 that has not previously been in our checklist. This stamp was one of a set of 4 definitives that was in use until 1948. The title is “Corvette Ready for Launching” and it shows a lighthouse in the background. As of now the light will be listed as “unidentified” unless someone can leave a comment below to help out.

On 1 July 2015 the Royal Australian Mint released two beautiful coins that commemorate the 100th anniversary of the Commonwealth of Australia accepting responsibility from the state governments for the 167 lighthouses then surrounding that nation’s coastline. One of the coins is struck from bronze and has a value of $1 and the other is made of fine silver and has a value of $5. These are collector coins and not intended for circulation.
