The "Penny Red" (Queen Victoria): Visible on the far right. This is a 1d red "stars" or "plate" issue from the mid-1800s. While common for that era, they are always in demand and retail for £1.00 to £3.00 individually depending on the condition and plate number.

• 1948 Olympic Games (3d Brown): Featured clearly in the center. These were issued to celebrate the "Austerity Games" in London and are a favorite for sports thematic collectors.

• 1963 Paris Postal Conference (6d Purple): The large stamp at the top center. It commemorates the centenary of the first international postal conference.

• 1966 Battle of Hastings (1/3d): On the left, featuring the Bayeux Tapestry style. This is part of a very popular 900th-anniversary set.

• High-Value Definitives: I can see a large blue stamp (likely a 2/6 or 5/- value) on the right, which typically fetches more than the smaller "pennies" or "shillings."
