This Russian Civil War era stamp features the Imperial double-headed eagle in blue, originally issued at a face value of 10 kopecks. The stamp carries a striking red overprint, reflecting the period of turmoil and revaluations during the early Soviet era. Such overprints were applied on existing Imperial stock due to inflation and currency changes following the revolution. This issue is a classic example of the transitional postal history of Russia, bridging the fall of the Empire and the establishment of Soviet authority. Highly collectible, it holds both historical and philatelic significance.
