Can anyone ID this for me? I've done a lot of research and can't find it. I really need a Scotts international. Thanks!

This is a 2 Cent Tobacco Tax stamp, overprinted for Fengtien, later known as Mukden, and these days called Shenyang. You won't find it any of the postage stamp catalogues.

No idea, I'm afraid: I don't collect China. However, I have the impression these Tobacco Tax stamps aren't particularly rare, and Fengtien/Mukden/Shenyang was quite an important place, being right up near the Russian border.

Got ya. Yes, I just found a few searching Google but not with the same color overprints. I'm guessing not too rare.
