SCG13690 - United States Jefferson Postal Card – 1¢ Green Revalued to 2¢ (P.O. Dept. Overprint)
1 in stock
This United States postal card originally carried a 1-cent green Jefferson indicium, but was later revalued to 2 cents by the Post Office Department, as indicated by the boxed “REVALUED 2¢ P.O. DEPT.” overprint. Such upratings were applied when postal rates increased, allowing existing stocks of postal stationery to remain usable rather than being discarded. The Jefferson profile indicium represents one of the classic U.S. postal stationery designs used in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Revalued cards are collected as postal history items reflecting rate changes and administrative adaptations within the U.S. postal system. Clean examples with clear overprints are especially appealing to postal stationery specialists.
