Royal Mail has revealed four new stamps issued in memory of Prince Philip.
The Duke of Edinburgh died in April at the age of 99. His passing sparked global tributes.
Now the black and white images which will feature on the stamps have been published, and show various pictures of the Prince over the years.

The stamps, which are presented in a miniature sheet, retails at £6.65 and will be available on general sale from 24 June - a fortnight after the Duke would have marked his 100th birthday.
