Can anyone help me to determine where this fiscal stamp is from - I have done a good deal of searching and can't determine which town this is from.

Hi limedeiros. I believe it is an Italian municipal revenue- or tax stamp. If you consider that Italy had over 8000 municipalities in the 19th century, and all of them issued tax stamps you can understand that it is pretty hard to figure where exactly this one is from.

Italian control stamp:

from my records:

Hi, it's a fiscal stamp. It was used as a proof "riscontro" of the registration tax payment.
They were not sold to the public, but just used by the tax clerks.
Regards
Michele

Early "riscontro" stamps from my example query.
