Dave,
I stopped in London last November on my way back from a business trip to
Switzerland (took the Eurostar through the Chunnel) and tried to buy
some of the 63p Morgan postage stamps at a post office. I was told
that this stamp had already gone out of circulation by that time but
that I could buy a nice folder with all 5 stamps (Morgan, MG, TR-3, A-H,
Jag) for UK L 2.25, I believe. Yes, I did buy some, just to have the
Morgan stamp. The sets are quite nice, actually.
