Peru 1936 Inka Surcharge

Peru · 1936 · 10 Centavos on 1 Sol

A Peruvian stamp from 1936 depicting an Inka figure, surcharged in black with 'Habilitado S./ 0.10 Cts.' over the original 1 Sol denomination.

Issued as a provisional stamp in 1936, this surcharge likely served to adjust postal rates or repurpose existing stock during a period of economic or administrative change in Peru.
