Revenues - R300s Or R600s - I Assume R667 And R660

Hello,

Can you confirm or share insight on how I distinguish if these Revenues are R 300 and R 392 or R667 and R660. I assume they are newer as they seem to be in good shape (based on my limited knowledge).

Thanks again.

They do not have the "series (date)" overprint, so they are the later numbers.

They are the 1954 issues, R667 and R660. The 1c through $10,000 values from 1940 through 1953 are all overprinted in black Series followed by the year. The 1c through $20 without the Series overprint are from 1954 and were in use through 1967. The $30 through $10,000 stamps from 1954 to 1958 all have the Series and year overprint. Starting in 1958 these stamps were issued without the overprint and remained in use through 1967.

Yes the more I looked, I also came to that conclusion. You guys are awesome, thank you for the response. Everyday I will learn a little more. Nora.
