I think the stamp is from England which contain the images of their Queen symbolizing the monarchy. It is the other way around to identify the country which represent is from United Kingdom.

ah, Helvetia the stamps is a symbol from the country of Switzerland. Great Britain was the first country to issue postage stamps, therefore there is no country name on the stamps of Great Britain, only the image of the king or the queen and the words 'POSTAGE' or 'POSTAGE AND REVENUE'. Switzerland has chosen to use the ancient name 'HELVETIA' on its stamps to avoid problems with the three languages that are spoken in this country. Stamps with inscription 'MAGYAR POSTA' or 'MAGYARORSZAG' are stamps from Hungary. source:http://home.planet.nl/~klase024/identif.htm
