Bisected stamps were used when there was an increase in the postal rate and not enough stamps at the new rate had been printed to meet the demand or when people had old stamps on hand that didn't meet the new rate. Bisects are quite rare because as soon as there are enough stamps at th...e new rate to meet the demand, there is no further need for bisects.
