Thanks Nigel, I'll re catalogue my example.

Another one for interest for the Chinese collectors.

rod222, wow! we're getting into some obscure parts of the catalogue now.

I've never looked at these listings before...

This one appears to be SG NE80 $2 deep violet from Liaoning in North East China, catalogued at a stunning £500 unused £600 used back in 1998.

I hope I've identified correctly and it's genuine!

Tony, you did a very good job of read the Chinese character. As a Chinese I once even made a mistake of common sense about the case-sensitive Chinese numerals at here and elsewhere...

Steve, I will come back to you 20 hours later, and please feel free post more stamps. I start learning and dealing stamps about 2 years, I do not konw much about Chinease stamps, and never deal any Chinese stamps of before 1949 as too much stamps are very hard to differentiate real and fake, now via your thread it is a nice chance to study more about them.

Rod, I think Nigelc has identified your example correctly and I also hope it is genuine! If so, I really envy you can find out the supply of goods and own it.

Well done Nigel,
you have excellent information.
We can all be jealous of that one, I do not own it,
it belongs to my virtual stamp album, the image came
from an auction catalogue circa 1990 IIRC.
At the time of the scan I didn't bother
keeping reserve prices, which I now do.

OK this is the last of them, I promise.



Sorry the writing on this is a bit faint.





Thanks for all your help.

Steve

1 set of 3
Issued date: 1950, February 7

Gibbons lists the Guizhou parcels stamp as SG SWP7 in the Guizhan section of their South West China listing.

SG lists two versions of the stamp depending on the size of the yuan character: SG SWP7 has this 3mm high and SG SWP7a has this 4mm high.

It says that in a sheet of 200 there were 49 stamps with the large character and 151 with the small character.

Steve,
On the third stamp down, there are two pearly "globulets"
springing from the sun, left and right.
On the left, underneath the left globulet is a very tiny "C"

This indicates it was printed by the Paicheng Printing Co, Nanping.
No Gum
P12.5

This differs from other without the "C"
printed at Central trust Chungking.

No difference in CV

Sorry I did not in time translate the Chinese character on No.3, right side "½Ú½¨´¢½ð"= economizing for building country postal savings, left "¸ÄÖµÎé½Ç"=corrected value 50 cents. It is a postal savings stamp not listed on Scott Stamp Catalogue.

The basic stamp is as Rod indicated point for point.

This kind of overprint on the stamp was by Zhejiang Province, in low value.

Great Info Zhang Cheng
we are fortunate to have you here.

Good challenging stamps Steve, more Dr. Sun Yat Sen stamps
for my database.

Whilst the thread captures our Chinese specialists, I may
slip this French Colony stamp in, to attract any comments?

"5104" (SHANGHAI) "gros chiffres" cancel
unlisted in Maury
At the time of the French "Sage" design, cancels abroad were usually CDS's

Thanks Rod, but I must clarify I am not the Chinese specialist, only 2 years into stamp world.
