Overprint
For the recovery of public money see Surcharge (sanction on public servant) An overprint is the addition of text (and sometimes graphics) to the face of a postage stamp after it has been printed (although some overprints are solely in the selvedge area of souvenir sheets).[1] Overprints have been used for many purposes over the years. They have been used as surcharges, commemorations, and control marks.
