A compelling historical collection of vintage postage stamps from the RSFSR (Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic) issued during the turbulent post-revolutionary period and currency reforms of 1917–1922.
This philatelic set stands out for its excellent thematic variety. The top rows showcase early definitive issues depicting iconic symbols of labor like the sickle, hammer, anvil, and open book in high ruble values. The bottom row highlights include classic "Sword Cutting Chain" stamps with dramatic black "100.000" ruble surcharge overprints from the hyperinflation era, alongside the 1917–1921 RSFSR anniversary issues. Select stamps bear authentic period postal cancellations, while the rest preserve Mint Hinged (MH) collection status on the reverse.

Features:

  • Set of 18 vintage stamps
  • Authentic RSFSR early revolutionary and post-civil war issues
  • Circa 1917–1922 era
  • Features heavy "100.000" ruble hyperinflation overprints on iconic "Sword Cutting Chain" bases
  • Includes 1917–1921 commemorative emblems and definitive symbols of labor designs
  • Mint Hinged (MH) condition with historical cancellation marks / postmarks

The set includes stamps with various denominations and surcharges, such as:

  • 5, 100, 200, 250, 300, 500, 1000 rubles, and overprints of 100,000 rubles.

A fascinating collectible for:

  • early Soviet Union (USSR) and RSFSR philately collectors
