Guangdong Overprint, 20 Cents

China · 1941 · 20 cents

A Chinese definitive stamp featuring a portrait of Sun Yat-sen, overprinted with '廣東' (Guangdong) and '貳拾分' (20 cents) in large characters.

Issued in 1941, this regional overprint reflects the complex administrative and currency situation in China during the Second Sino-Japanese War, where local authorities often issued their own stamps or overprints.
