Ireland: 2022 : 1922 Overprint Cancellation on Strip of 3 This unique strip of 3 with replica 1922 overprint cancellations is only available from the Presentation Pack. In 2022, Ireland marks the centenary of three momentous events that heralded the establishment of the Irish Free State. On 13th January, An Post issued a set of three stamps to commemorate the formal handover of Dublin Castle to the Free State, the formation of the Civic Guard and of the Irish Army. The Dublin Castle stamp design features an iconic image of the Irish Harp, a symbol of national identity and commemorates the handover of Dublin Castle to the Irish Free State. The second stamp marks the establishment of a new police force, the Civic Guard, in 1922 by the Provisional Government which would later go on to be renamed as An Garda Síochána. The third stamp marks the centenary of the setting up of the National Army in 1922. The official badge of the Irish Defence Forces is the focal point of the contemporary stamp design. The stamps are printed using the Intaglio printing process which makes the badges on each stamp stand out with the colour including gold particles and phosphor tagging.
