Selada in Spanish means sealed so resalada could mean resealed?

The overprint appears on some stamp issues of Ecuador and Venezuela, primarily due to large scale thefts. I believe it means "re-coined" or "re-issued". The overprint was used to demonetize the stolen stamps, which would NOT have the overprint. Hopefully, I got the story straight.

Thank you both,
I found the overprint in Venezuela, didn't find the stamp so am assuming it is a revenue.

Can anyone tell me what language this is and what it means?? I have an overprint that I think is a revenue but cannot tell from which country
Thanks in advance, Tom C
