Australia-1937-George the 6th-The 5 Shilling and 10 Shilling "Robes" Postage Stamps-Illustrated

Shown below are two examples of the 1937 Australian stamp issue of 5 and 10 Shillings. They show George the 6th and Queen Elizabeth (Queen Mother) in the robes worn on state occasions. There are two varieties of this issue, one on thick and one on thin paper. The thin paper variety is more highly valued.
