Hungary 1940 Mathias Hunyadi Corvinus 16f with Prinz-Eugen-Gau Overprint

Hungary · 1940 · 16 f

A portrait of King Mathias Hunyadi Corvinus, commemorating his 500th birthday, with a prominent overprint 'Prinz-Eugen-Gau' across the design.

Originally issued by Hungary in 1940 to honor King Mathias Corvinus, this stamp was later overprinted 'Prinz-Eugen-Gau', reflecting the complex territorial changes and German administration in parts of the Balkans during World War II.
