If anyone could help with a date of this stamp I'd appreciate it. Apologies in advance if it is indeed pre-1940's

Stamps of the set this stamp belongs to were issued from 1959-1962.

Queen Elizabeth II was coronated in 1953, so this obviously couldn't have been issued any earlier than that...

Marvelous thank you for the quick responses! I'm a little embarrassed to say I didn't recognize the Monarch.

Thought it was a neat one none the less.

The British Commonwealth issues from Africa are (IMO) hands down some of the best looking stamps ever issued.

No argument from me either.

The Rhodesia double heads and admirals are just stunning stamps with a myriad of shades.

I like all the KGV, KGVI, and QEII pictorials (local motives) since they were engraved and often bicolor.
