Bugger around with semantics all you like. If you INSIST on
playing games, there are cases where the overprints aren't
necessary. I gave the example of Britsh shillings and florins
continuing to circulate after D-Day but with new values. Old
Mexican pesos (the peso just before the most recent revaluation
of the early 90s) can apparently still be used (at a thousand
to one).
