Jersey Lighthouse Stamps September 2022

On 6 Sep 2022, Jersey Post issued two mini sheets featuring La Corbière Lighthouse in honor of Jersey’s traditional language, Jèrrais. The first sheet contains six stamps and the 91p value shows the lighthouse. The second 4£ sheet also shows a stylized version of the light. It’s interesting that in Jèrrais “Corbiethe” means “place where crows congregate”
