The Bermuda one is really nice.

Is the Chile one engraved? Looks like it. Also very nice.

The Tonga stamp is self-adhesive? The edges look interesting.

Yeah its supposed to be self adhesive. I bought it in an ebay auction and the guy who had these seems to have cut the envelope in the shape of the stamp. (which he has not done to perfection )

HMS Nonsuch.
(what an extraordinary name!)
encouraged me to look up some info,

not entirely sure this is the same ship,
but a replica from Winnipeg, illustrating
how tiny these vessels were, that those brave men
sailed in.

That's the "Dromedaris", the pedants argue
the stamp is an error, as it shows the sun rising
on the bow as it arrives.
It should have been astern.
(pedants have no regard for artistic licence)

Hi Marius,
There are various printings of that South Africa Stamp.
I'll try and find a few for comparison if you are interested.
Here are a few of mine favourites.
