Seems to be a common stamp, but can't find it in Scotts.
A telegraph or revenue type?

Postal savings, I believe. We know from an earlier thread that the shapes in the center are ancient Chinese coins (if I recall correctly).

These are not in Scott.

[Here is the thread where ZhangCheng i.d.s similar stamps as 1943 issues...

...take a look at the scans there and see what you think.]

Yes, from the Chinese inscription, another postal savings stamp.

SG doesn't list this series either.

It's quite annoying because they list the next lot of postal savings stamps.

Why that lot, but not this one, I wonder?

A lot of people have wasted hours and hours trying to work out what they are.

What are the SG catalogue numbers?

I didn't think SG listed postal savings stamps.

Hi jimjamtwo, both SG and Scott (#574-#577) list them as ordinary stamps.
