Fiscal cancel

In philately a fiscal cancel – symbol ^[1] – is a cancellation on a stamp that indicates that the stamp has been used for fiscal (taxation) purposes.^[2]

The stamp may either be a revenue stamp, intended purely for fiscal use, or it may be a dual-purpose stamp valid for either postal or fiscal use.
