I have this Uruguayan stamp. I assume it is a counterfeit. Can anyone tell me more about it? I wonder if it is common and if it has any value.
Thank you.

It is a bad fake of a Blue Uruguay Sun. Value? Sperati's forgeries or "reproductions" have value. This one is a crude forgery IMO.

Welcome, vin-art-col!

It's not just a bad fake, it's a spectacularly bad fake!

I wonder, was it intended to deceive collectors or the postal authorities? I suspect the latter. If so, it's of historical interest, but I doubt if such a forgery would have any commercial value unless used on a cover.
