The pieces were included within a lot of other Channel Island stamps, which eventually sold for £1,000.
According to the auction house, the Germans initially tolerated the use of British stamps after their arrival in the Island.
However, stamps included within the same lot, from other Nazi-occupied jurisdictions, showed that the Germans eventually replaced them with a new design, comprising three lions – similar to the States’ logo.
The entire collection, which included stamps from other countries, sold for a total of £18,400.
Speaking to The Times before the sale, auctioneer Barry Hawkins said: ‘These stamps are part of a worldwide collection of stamps from virtually every country.
‘The late owner began collecting about 30 years ago and it went on up to 2003.
‘Some of the stamps go back to the start of stamps – in other words the mid-1800s.
‘The people of the Channel Islands had no choice but to use them.
‘It was all part of the Nazi propaganda campaign of their domination of Europe.’
Speaking to the JEP, Mr Hawkins said that it was not the first time his company had been involved in selling Jersey-related items.
‘We will sell anything you can make a farthing out of,’ he said.
‘The last time anything from Jersey was sold was by my father.
‘That was Jersey cows belonging to the Queen in the 1950s.’
