Monaco Stamps – Monaco is an Independent principality on the south coast of France. Variously annexed or placed under the projection of different countries it became completely independent on 2 February 1861. When France gained Savoy and the Alpes Maritimes in 1858, Monaco became an enclave in French territory. The first Monaco stamps were Sardinian issues of 1851-60 and the France issues of 1860-85.
A Sardinian-style circular date postmark was allocated to Monaco and was used on French stamps when first introduced. French postmarks including the numeral “4222” in a lozenge of dots were introduced in September 1860. Monaco’s first unique stamp designs were issued on 1 July 1885 and it has continued to issue its own stamps since. We recommend the Monaco stamp listings in the Yvert & Tellier catalogue, as well as the excellent Stanley Gibbons catalogue.
