Good Afternoon Everyone,

I can't seem to find a value on this particular stamp. I'm hoping someone here might have the resources to look it up. I would like the catalog number and value if you have it please.

Railway Charges 3d ROTORUA


Thank you

That guide is perfect, thank you!

The current (Kiwi 2013) catalogue value for used 3d $10 but the station is what's valuable...

£Value:224
Scarcity Band:3
Typewritten Type I:Y

Can you confirm this is a Catalogue value for the stamp please
or, do I misunderstand you?

My records show £224 was the value of Railway charges stamps issued 1930-1931

If those two numbers are just a coincidence, then that is extraordinary.

There is a chart in the PDF link above that perf12 replied with. I took that information directly from page 39 in regards to the station "Rotorua". They have a "Value" column among others.

Thanks. Solved.

That is the (Total) value of the stamps issued to Rotorua in 1931, not a catalogue value of the stamp in question.


I would go here for approx values of individual revenue stamps $10?

Yes, sorry to burst your bubble.
It happens to all of us, a learning curve in Philately.

On the up side, it makes a real valuable discovery, more sweeter.

My valuable discoveries appear about every 6 years, I have had 3 from memory.
Disappointments, multiply that by 10.
