Germany 1948 - Inverted Overprint

Every so often I buy what appear to be completely worthless lots of common German stamps on ebay in the hope that the lot will yield something interesting. That strategy seems to have paid off, for this is only the second inverted overprint I've ever found. It's Occupied Germany (1948), 10pf with posthorn overprint (Michel 54 I).



This variety is not listed in my Michel (I haven't looked at Scott yet). I'm pretty sure it isn't common, so if anyone has a Michel Specialised Volume II, I'd really like to know what they list it for.

It's Michel 54 I K -- €15 MNH.

Thanks for the info, guys!

An interesting post
Thanks.

Werner und Maria von Axster-Heudtlass? 'AH'? The designers of some of the most beautiful stamps ever issued.

I wonder if the Soviets made them do time in a gulag as punishment. Many Germans were interned in such camps for far less!

I see you're a very politically correct German, BAYERN.

These are the ones I have in my collection. Are they worth something?
Thanks..

I have these inverted overprints from WWII. These are the only ones I have.

Very nice! Interesting shade difference there with the 5 pf. too.

Here it is the real way.

Thanks for the info....
