The Nobel stamps celebrate the 100th anniversary of the awards' creation, which happens on December 10, 2001.

The stamps commemorate the success of British Nobel prizewinners by featuring ground-breaking special effects.

The second class stamp (Chemistry Prize) shows a molecule of Carbon 60, co-discovered by British chemist Sir Harry Kroto in 1996.
