On 1 October 1905, Germany released this set of Germania overprints for use in Turkey. The stamps feature a Fraktur font in the overprint, and the underlying stamps are the unwatermarked "DEUTSCHES REICH" issues (Deutsches Reich MiNr. 70-81).
Overprint flaws exist on the 1 1/2 Piaster value.
Damaged left side on large “1” of left “1 ½” (right)
Posn. 80
MiNr. 28 I
Break in large “1” of left “1 ½” (right)
Posn. Unknown
MiNr. 28 II
In 1902, the Reichsdruckerei (Reich Printing Office) began printing in the margins of stamp sheets the internal order number under which the stamps were printed. This order number, or Hausauftragsnummer (HAN), varied in location, typically being found in the right or bottom margin.
Because the stamps of this set were overprinted, they can be found with two HAN – the HAN of the original printing order for the underlying Germania issues (HAN U), and the HAN of the order applying the overprint (HAN A).
