Your stamp has been exposed to sulfur and has changed color. You can often use a soft eraser to restore the color. If this does not work you can soak it in 3% hydrogen peroxide and turn it back to the original orange color.

If you use the 3% Peroxide, make sure that you follow up with a 100% water soak to get rid of the Peroxide residue.
