Uruguay 1939 - Banco de la Republica Oriental del Uruguay 1000 Pesos Specimen, De La Rue Cancel Stamp, Serie A, Specimen No. 50 (Pick 41as)

Cancellation on this specimen is effected through a restrained printer-applied method rather than mechanical perforation or large overprint. The obverse bears a small red oval stamp reading SPECIMEN DE LA RUE – CANCELLED, applied near the lower central portion of the design. No diagonal SPECIMEN overprint or perforated cancellation is present. This cancellation style reflects a controlled printer-level handling protocol, balancing permanent non-monetary invalidation with maximal preservation of the engraved artwork. Read more →

A broad diagonal red SPECIMEN overprint crosses the principal design field, immediately establishing the note's reference status. The oval SPECIMEN DE LA RUE CANCELLED control stamp adds a second level of authority, identifying the cancellation as part of the printer's formal handling system. Unlike a purely decorative overprint, the combined markings communicate both function and custody: the note was intentionally prepared, recorded, and invalidated under controlled conditions.
