Hello,

Aside from Queen Victoria, who surely rules the number of issued country incidences, how many other recognizable women appeared on stamps from the 19th Century? Scenes of indigenous peoples, such as they might exist, portraying unidentifiable females would not count for this list. I'm thinking hardcore worldwide collectors might know this one.

I'll vouch for the Hawaiians:

Queens Kaleleonalani, Kapiolani, and Liliuokalani
and
Princesses Likelike and Kaahumanu

And would you count Ceres? (Identifiable woman, although a mythical goddess)

re: Queen Victoria Rules This List

Few women were depicted on stamps of the 19th century, here are the ones I can think of:

Queen Wilhelmina- Netherlands
Queen Isabella- Spain, Cuba, Philipines, Puerto Rico
Queen Maria- Portugal
Many different Mythological females:
Liberty- U.S. Liberia and others
Helvetia- Switzerland
Germania- Germany
Peace & Commerce- France and colonies.
Hope- Cape of Good Hope
Misc: Plenty, Victory, Justice, Freedom,

This set of U.S. Newspapers is probably the best representation of misc Goddess's

Marianne of France (from 1849). National symbol of the French Republic, a portrayal of the Goddess of Liberty. More of an allegorical figure, than an actual person.

Thanks all for contributing. So far, more than I had figured including the allegorical depictions/goddesses.

No, Queen Solote reigned from 1918 till 1965. Her Pa was King George Tupou II.
