SCG11144 - Israel – Overprinted Wheat Coin Definitives (Low Values)
1 in stock
These stamps belong to Israel’s classic Wheat Coin definitive design, inspired by an ancient Jewish bronze coin depicting wheat ears—symbolizing agriculture, renewal, and national revival. The bold black overprints “0.06” and “0.08” were applied to meet changing postal rate requirements, making them part of Israel’s important provisional/adjusted-rate issues. Printed in strong contrasting colors (green and red), these low denominations are essential for collectors assembling early Israel definitive and overprint studies. Their simplicity, crisp typography, and historical context make them highly collectible despite modest face value.
Philatelic Notes:
-
Design based on ancient Jewish numismatic motifs
-
Overprints indicate rate adjustments, not new base designs
-
Popular with collectors of Israeli definitives, overprints & early postal history

Often studied for font, alignment, and shade variations
