I have three stamps I have not been able to identify in my Scott catalogue. Can anyone help me with these. If you can provide a country of issue, catalogue number, year of issue, description and catalogue value I would be very appreciative. Thanks

Tip:
with the last stamp, you have a Scott "type"
It is always wise to advise this when asking for advice.
I can then search my stamps for that Opt.
Help us, to help you.

Your second stamp is a Revenue, referred to as Flag / Map revenue.
The overprint is the appropriate province (Unknown by me)

the character meaning China is a horizontal oblong with a stick vertically through the middle. It is visible in the first illustration at bottom right facing, to the left of the 50. Communist china usually(always?)has the people character which is something like an upside down V or Y with a short tail. Sorry I don't have a scanner to illustrate my point.
