Adolf Hitler with Kurland Overprint

Germany · 1945 · 12 + 38 Pfennig

The stamp features a profile portrait of Adolf Hitler, overprinted with 'KURLAND' in black capital letters across the top. The original denomination is '12 + 38 Pfg'.

These stamps were issued by Germany for use in the Courland Pocket, a German-held area in Latvia surrounded by Soviet forces during the final months of World War II. They reflect the desperate conditions and the temporary nature of German administration in the region.
