I am constantly surprised by the vast variety of topics and themes depicted on stamps! However, I haven't seen any unicorns yet. Are there any unicorn stamps??

Any stamp with the coat-of-arms of the UK. One of the shield bearers is a unicorn. |

Just for the fun. Raphael (or one of his disciples) painted "the lady and the unicorn" In this painting the tiny unicorn is supposed to be a symbol for chastity. This painting appears on at least seven postage stamps and maybe someone will add one or two more. Stamps from Ecuador (1967),Hungary (1983) and Gabon (1983)    From the Arabian Peninsula : Upper Yafa (1967), Kingdom of Yemen , and Yemen Arab Republic (1968)    And last but not least a stamp from Italy (1999) with the lady but without the unicorn !  |

Here are two more Raphael unicorns (thanks to SCF member 22crows) These stamps are from San Marino (1963) and the Maldives Islands (1983)   |
