Magnus Carlsen stamp

In 2014, the Norwegian Postal Service (Posten) commemorated the Norwegian Chess Federation’s centenary with the release of their 1890th stamp, featuring an image of Magnus Carlsen. The stamp was printed in a limited edition of 500,000 copies and is priced at 15 Norwegian Kroner (1.8 Euros), the second price level for stamps in Norway. Only 30 stamps are released in Norway each year, and it is extremely rare for a living person to be depicted on a stamp.
