Postage Due Stamp, Overprinted

North Macedonia · 1922 · 10 Para

This is a postage due stamp, indicated by the large numeral '10' for the denomination of 10 Para. The stamp features an overprint on a previous issue, a common practice during periods of political or administrative change. The design is functional, focusing on clearly communicating the amount due.

Issued in 1922, this stamp represents a period of transition in the Balkans following World War I and the dissolution of the Ottoman Empire. The use of overprints on existing stock was a practical measure for newly established postal administrations.
