Information On A 1/2 Stamp Of 20-H Of Poland With A Surcharge 10-H, Thank You

information on a 1/2 stamp of 20h of Poland with a surcharge 10h, thank you

The stamp is for sothern Poland, 20 Halerzy stamp Biscected.
The surcharge would be 10 Halerzy

It's an interesting item & a little dubious - base stamp is Poland 1919 Yvert 188 (as identified on the piece) or Scott 125, not Yt 176.

Previous owner has written in French "No 188 - surcharged? Armee Austro-Hongarie" on the piece. But that attribution seems suspect, given that WWI was over by then and Austria-Hungary no longer existed. And no mention of military surcharges on Poland stamps in Michel Austria specialized.

Just my observations - hopefully someone more knowledgeable will chime in.

No expert.
Could not see anything listed in KATALOG POPULARNY 1984
Base stamp Cat#77
or in Austrian Occupation.

Bearing in mind I cannot read Polish.
I was looking for Bisect/ed


Does the fact the Bisect Surcharge, looks like the same ink and typeface as the Address, seem odd

An excellent observation. Perhaps this is a purely philatelic creation?

Thanks for your reply, but I'm

Mohamedel,
it is rare that SCF cannot solve most Philatelic queries,
but it does happen.
It would be even more difficult, if some Ne'er do well,
made up a Phantasy item, that also happens.

Personally, I flag my item as "Unknown" then go searching elsewhere on the internet for possible ID.
Poland stamp clubs, Poland stamp bloggers etc,
eventually you shall arrive at some consensus, then can post back with what you have found.

I find it scarce that items like thses are not listed in major
stamp catalogues.
That immediately arouses suspicion.
Good Luck

thank you very much for your answers
@rod 222,
but I would like to inform you that with SCF I learned a lot of information
thank you to you and all the members of SCF,

I will continue my search and let you know when I find something.

sorry for my English….

Your English is just fine, Mohamedel !

It could be a local overprint,used by local post offices when certain stamps were no longer available or in shortage.
One would have to identify the town.

Hello @rod222
with the help of translation software

hello @perf12

thank you very much

I have seen 5 Bisects on ebay,
all are from the 6gr Warsaw issue
4 dated 1916, 1 dated 1919.

hello @perf12

I sent a message to that effect to the author.
Thanks for your help

The cancels town is "Drohobycz or Drohobych". Around 60km into Ukraine.So that would put the stamp at around the time of the Polish offensive into Ukraine.Also known as the liberation of little Poland.
