Pskov Provisional Stamps, Types 1 and 2

Russia · 1919 · 10 kopecks / 20 kopecks

Two provisional stamps from Pskov, Russia, featuring hand-stamped circular overprints in black ink on underlying definitive issues, with denominations of '10 коп.' and '20 коп.'.

Issued during the Russian Civil War (1918-1922), these local provisionals were created in Pskov due to a shortage of regular postage stamps, reflecting the period's administrative challenges.
