United States, Scott #2966, used(o), 1995, Honoring and encouraging the memory of the Prisoners of War (POW), those Americans captured and held by the enemy and those who were in battle and cannot be accounted for as either alive or dead (MIA), stamp shows the reminder “POW & MIA” and the watchwords “Never Forgotten” on a metal Military Identification tag, known as a ‘dog tag’, this in the foreground, with an American flag in the background (interestingly, the dog tag shown has raised letters, whereas on real dog tags, the lettering is indented), 32 cents, offset lithography printed by Ashton Potter USA (APU), perforated: 11¼, ‘POW & MIA’ in horizontal, but curved, microprint along the furl of the red strip at the middle bottom of the stamp, Scott 2019 Catalog Value: 25¢, nicely centered, double strike cancels, both, very faint, black-inked, single-rimmed, broken-up and hollowed out, circular, socked-on-the-nose cancellations, the main, a half circular cancel centered on the left border and extending over the middle of the stamp and over the main image, the second, a half circular touch border cancel at the bottom, left of center, the lightness of the main cancel and its broken-up and hollowed-out effects leaves the main image virtually clear, sound back, good perforations; centering and image free cancel warrants a selling price premium. This is not a 'bait-and-switch;' the stamp you see will be the one you receive.
Please review my terms of sale. If you are not ordering from the United States, there is a $US1.55 additional postage expense that needs to be added to the price of the stamp. If you are ordering from the United States, there is only a $US0.68 added postage expense. Also, if you make additional purchases from my offerings, they can all go in one mailing at no extra shipping expense for the added purchases. I will send the purchase by US first class mail, since the relatively low value of the stamp does not warrant signature or tracking mail. Hence the buyer assumes risk of loss or non-delivery. I will keep a scan of my mailing to verify that the correct mailing address was used. If not satisfied, return the stamp to me at your own expense, and I will refund the cost, but not my postage to you. If the stamp is not as described, I will refund the cost and reimburse you for postage both ways.
By way of reference, I am an American Philatelic Society member (195176) and an American Stamp Dealers Association (ASDA) member. Thank you for looking, and I hope this is the perfect stamp to fill that gap in your collection.
