Hungary 1920 Reapers in Field with Double Overprint

Hungary · 1920 · 10 fillér

A 10 fillér definitive stamp featuring reapers in a field, with a red three-line overprint 'MAGAR TANÁCS KÖZTÀRSASAG' and a black overprint of a bundle of wheat ears.

This stamp reflects a turbulent period in Hungarian history, with the first overprint commemorating the short-lived Hungarian Soviet Republic in 1919, and the second overprint marking its downfall in 1920.
