French Indochina 2 Centimes Paul Doumer Surcharge

French Indochina · 1946 · 2c

This stamp from French Indochina features a portrait of Paul Doumer, a former Governor-General, with a '2c' surcharge applied over the original '2c' denomination.

Issued in 1946, this surcharge likely reflects a provisional measure for postal rates or a shortage of specific denominations in French Indochina during the post-World War II period, a time of significant political change in the region.
