I have a R O C Stamp # 806 and I am trying to find out what the symbols mean and the stars on the stamp? I would like to know how old the stamp is, the value and translation?

Than you,

Happy Holidays!

69 years old (1948)
value 20c 2009
The stamp is surcharged (new value)
$8000 on $700 valued stamp.

The stars are a device to obliterate the previous value
The text would read $8000 (guess)

Good guess! Actually it reads (from right to left): "Alteration 8000 dollars (yuan)."
