Unknown China Stamps

tonymacq: I have found that the underscore of the smaller 'oo' on the obvious $50 is even with the base of the '50'. this further lends to the stamp being a $50 (vice $5). I thank you for translating the characters. I guess I can catalog these. thnx

I remembered this older thread as I was looking through some older Chinese items. Here, I have two Scott 923. At first, I was wondering because the two stamps are of different heights (18.2 mm vs 17.8mm), but then I saw the Scott note:

923, Type VI No projection (Dah Tung Book Co.)
923a, Type V Projection on left frame columns below foliate ornament (Dah Yeh Printing Co.)

I think I have it. So here is Scott 923a and 923, side-by-side:



923a, with projection:



923, No projection:

Request any assistance with gossip / information, listed anywhere?

Label on back, as found.

Your stamp is the right-most stamp in a 5-part strip, Scott China (ROC) #E10(1914). There is an older thread somewhere on SCF where we discussed these.

I sold one a while back on ebay and it attracted a lot of bids.

I was not able to find my older post, but I see the information that I posted regarding how the strip of 5 was used is in the header information for the China Special Delivery section in Scott.

In 2017 Scott, your used single is valued at US$50. Your usage is before the other stamps in the strip were demonetized. In your post you showed a pic of a stamp with a "D" handstamp -- that is an example of usage after the demonetization (i.e., all stamps valid as receipts only, not just the end stap in the strip).

Aha. Found them.
Thank you very much gentlemen.

Hi Rod,

The green stamp is from a 1908 post card (H&G 6) or the corresponding reply card (H&G 7).

Thank you very much Nigel.
