A Few More Stock Transfers W/Perfins?

Not sure if that is what these are called or the scott #, can anyone help me out?

thanks

Hello-

The $4 stamp may be RD15, from the 1918-1929 series. Some in the series were created with offset printing and some were engraved. If yours is, in fact, RD15, it would be engraved.

RD15 listed at $11.00 for mint and .25 for used in the 2008 Scott.

The other two stamps are state, not federal, revenues, and I don't know where you'd find a catalog for those.

As always, this is subject to correction by someone who knows more about these.

The, out of print, Hubbard catalog lists all state revenues. The NY state revenue stamps that you show are extremely common, not worth a cent. The $4 stock transfer is actually a nice stamp, I am missing this one myself, probably worth about $7.

As far as anyone knows, is there any variation in value for the particular perfin? Or is it one-size-fits-all?

One size fits all. There are a very few specialist collectors, throwing them up on the wall in ebay, to see if you can interest them and even find them, on ebay is way too expensive. Ergo, they are meaningless

The bottom 2 stamps will be listed in the SRS State Revenue Stamp Catalog.

My friend Kurt has a site for New York Stock Transfer Tax Stamps.

Nixer that is a nice selection of revenues. I have a few in my collection. I should dig them out and scan a few. I do find the perfins interesting to try a determine the design depicted & who used it.

Wow - that is one hell of a site, now I know of at least one of the specialist collectors.

There are a number of perfin catalogs, some just for documentation/ID and not prices. I do not have any of them, and the names of the catalogs all elude me at the moment.

I can probably ID some of them (with the help of some of my perfin collecting friends) given enough time. However, it is more helpful to have a FACE-DOWN pic on a dark background, in order to see the holes more clearly.

This is indeed a RD15. With a perfin Cancel it is virtually worthless. It would carry a Scott minimum value. There are loads of these around. The same would hold true for the NY Stock Transfers.
