Stamp

A stamp is a distinctive mark or impression made upon an object, for instance those made on a piece of paper and used to indicate the prepayment of a fee or tax. Types of stamps include:
- Postage stamps, used on mail
- Revenue stamps, often used on documents; they are superficially similar to postage stamps, but may have very high denominations (see also Stamp Act and Stamp Duty)
- Rubber stamps, devices used to apply inked markings to objects
A stamp can also be:
- BASIC Stamp, the microcontroller.
- A downwards kick using the heel, see Stomp (strike).
Stamp may also refer to the manufacturing processes using Machine presses and dies.
