Although the idea of stamps in Australia featuring British monarchs were controversial when the new commonwealth first issued its own stamps in 1913 (leading to the famous kangaroo stamps), the rulers were soon commemorated on Australian stamps; Queen Elizabeth II, crowned in 1953, was no exception, and collecting Australian stamps featuring Elizabeth II can be as absorbing and fun as collecting those of George V and George VI.
To collect Australia stamps of Queen Elizabeth II, collectors can choose from individual stamps as well as several FDCs, regular covers, maximum cards, stamp blocks, souvenir sheets, various jubilee stamps, and many others.
