Kolchak Government 35 Kopek Inverted Overprint

Russia (Kolchak Government) · 1919 · 35 kopek

The stamp features the double-headed eagle emblem of the Russian Empire, overprinted with '35 коп.' (35 kopek) in black. The overprint is notably inverted, indicating an error.

This stamp was issued by the anti-Bolshevik Kolchak Government in Siberia during the Russian Civil War, reflecting a period of political upheaval and the attempt to maintain postal services. The inverted overprint makes it a notable error issue from this tumultuous period.
