 * In 1964, it issued an independence set along with a pictorial definitive series.
 * From 1965 to mid-1970, copper-colored ink was alway included in stamp designs. Zambia's principle export is copper.
 * From about 1985, more values were denominated in kwacha ("K") than ngwee ("N") due to inflation. Older stamps were then surcharged in groups in 1987, 1989, 1991 and 2003 along with occasional singles as needed.
 * In 2013, there was a 1000 to 1 currency revision downwards, with stamps previously denominated in the thousands of kwacha now surcharged for a thousandth of their previous marked values.
