Specimen Stamps

Specimen stamps are stamps that are created specifically for demonstration or testing purposes. They are usually overprinted or perforated with the word "SPECIMEN" to indicate that they are not valid for postage. These stamps are often used by postal authorities to showcase new designs or to prevent theft and fraud. Specimen stamps are highly collectible among philatelists due to their unique and limited nature.
