Merino Sheep with Habilitado Overprint
Peru · 1937 · 15 Cts.
A Peruvian stamp featuring a Merino sheep, overprinted in black with 'Habilit. 15 Cts.' to re-denominate its value.
This 'Habilitado' overprint likely re-denominated an existing stamp for new postal rates or specific services, possibly airmail, during a period of economic or postal system adjustments.
