Cachet
In
philately, a cachet is a design or inscription, other than a cancellation or pre-printed postage, on an
envelope,
postcard, or
postal card to commemorate a postal or philatelic event. There are official and private cachets; they commemorate everything from the first flight on a particular route, to the
Super Bowl. Cachets are also frequently made, either by private companies, or a government, for
First day of issue stamp events or 'Second-Day' stamp events. They are often present on
event covers.
