I have a 30ch north korean 1986 mexico world cup stamp with a overprint of the results of the world cup. Is this a common overprint?

Here's the original listing. You'll notice at the bottom it refers you to the stamps containing the overprint (Mit Aufdruck.) I distinctly remember this World Cup - it happened in my country of origin :D When I went to Argentina, I bought a Hand of God shirt. You can Google that real quick...



And here's the listing for the overprint

The overprints are also listed in the Stanley Gibbons catalogues, N2622-2627.
What is showing for North Korea at Scott #2599-2604?

Yep, there they are. Was lazy and went straight the one I knew most likely had it. The 2012 edition shows the set at $16.
