I have this stamp and I found it in my Scott book but it doesn't give a value. Instead it says:

This overprint was applied to 500,000 copies of stamp # B1 in 1923 and they were given to the Society for Wounded Invalids (Uprava Ratnih Invalida) which sold them for 2d apiece. These overprinted stamps had no franking power, but some were used through ignorance.

Does someone else have a different book that shows a value for this?



Thanks,
Lucky

None in 1963 Gibbons Lucky,
identifies the stamp as a charity label, hence does
not offer a book value.
It therefore lies under the category Cinderella.

Hi,
I have Michel catalog with me now and it doesn't show value also. I have Serbian catalog back home and will check it up as soon as I can.
PS I also have that stamp in mint state and I dont think I payed very much for it.
Maybe 1-2 euros at most.
Greetings from Serbia.

...hardly that someone other catalog will list this issue, and in Michel catalog, issue without overprint, are list under number 159, 30. Jan. 1921.
Michel catalog just mentioned it as private overprint, not valid for postage.
Market is short of this sample, and prices are not low!
