German Reich 1923 Inflation Overprint

German Reich · 1923 · 2 Millionen Mark

A definitive stamp from the German Reich featuring a circular design with the original denomination '500 Tausend Mark', overprinted diagonally with '2 Millionen'. The country name 'Deutsches Reich' is inscribed at the top.

This stamp is a stark illustration of the hyperinflation crisis in Germany during 1923, where denominations rapidly escalated, necessitating overprints to reflect new, higher postal rates.
