DEDICATION

This opening page is dedicated to the Late

Mr. Kevin Parkhill of Rochdale, a keen Perfin

Society member, who initiated this study of

the perfined revenue stamps of Great Britain.

I would not have been able to produce this

catalogue without Kevin's notes, papers and

correspondence from perfin collectors around

the world.

You all know who you are, so many thanks

indeed for your information which has

culminated in this first specialised edition of a

GB Contract Note Perfin Revenue Catalogue.


OF GREAT BRITAIN

The following pages have been put together with the intention of helping the collector

of perfined revenue stamps, it is by no means complete, hopefully collectors who

have additional information will let me know the details, and more pages will be

made up as and when.

As there is no present perfined Revenue cataloguing system I am adopting a new

system, using the letter followed by two numbers and two decimal places.

A single letter "M" after the catalogue number indicates a Multi headed die.

I.E. A 23.01. Where the perfin is already catalogued in the New Gault

Illustrated Perfin Catalogue, on postage stamps, then this catalogue number will also

be alongside. At this moment in time only different Reigns will be used, with an

accompanying list of stamps on which the perfin has been seen.

A Typical entry will be as follows.

In use Date range based on known dates.

Dates Earliest and latest known dates from

Documents or Cancellations.

Issues Only different Reigns will be used

QVic, EDVII, GV, GVI, QEII,

Ident Company Name & address identified by

Document or Cachet Cancellation.

Suspected Ident Ø This symbol indicates a suspected

Identity.

Where the perfin is indicated by Typed letters, the letters have

been reported, but the die remains unknown.

Where possible the illustration for each die has been taken from stamps and other

catalogues. However a number of previously unknown dies have had to be scanned.

Edited and Produced by

Jeff Turnbull.

INTRODUCTION


OF GREAT BRITAIN

For the benefit of those who are not familiar with Contract Note stamps, I will give

the following short introduction.

Perfined Contract Note Stamps.

Contract Note Stamps were Primarily a tax on an agreement to purchase shares or

Securities, and were affixed to the sale document.

Where a series of sales were included on one Contract Note each sale was taxed,

hence the use of a series of stamp values.

The stamps first appeared in 1888 on QVic issues with an overprinted monetary

inscription in black. The company perfin if on used stamps is usually cancelled by a

manuscript cancel or a straight-line datestamp. Private Company cachets of various

types are also used (Blue, Mauve, & Purple).

Contract Note Duty ended in March 1985.

NOTE : - Ref: - Stamp Duty act 1891.

Perfined & Overprinted QVic 1d & 6d, EDVII 1d,2d & 6d, & GV 1d & 2d Postage

stamps are also recorded used as Duty payable on purchases of stocks & shares

between £5-00 & £1000.00 pounds. (QVic & EDVII 6d are recorded on notes with

multi transactions).

For the overprint collector there are also overprints of the various companies who

used these stamps, mostly Stock Broking companies.

(All known overprints to date are listed in part two of the catalogue).

NOTE : -

There are various slightly different type settings for the words “CONTRACT NOTE”

From QVic to GVI It is also found with thick and thin letters.

INTRODUCTION


OF GREAT BRITAIN

The term “SPG” Type originates from the first discovery (1994) of these clamped

together dies, which was made by our Catalogue Editor Roy Gault when looking at

numerous Perfins with the letters “SPG”, each showing many variations. These

would eventually become Cat No S 5900.01v and S 5900.02v.

The suffix “v” after the Catalogue number alerts the collector that variations can be

expected, in size, shape, and pin count.

A short explanation is that the “SPG” Types are single letters which are clamped

together to produce the required initials as one die. The three letter type almost

always reads down the stamp (with the Monarch’s head upright).

There are two basic types, with a change over date of approx 1906. The earlier type

(1890-1906) are mostly 5 pins high, whereas the later type (1906-1930) are only 4

pins high. Both earlier and later types may be found with one, two, or three letters,

with one known of the earlier type with four letters.

There are now 411 different G.B. Perfin dies recognised as “SPG” Types, but only the

eleven below have so far been reported on Contract Note Stamps.

Typical variations to be found. (Many H&B noted)

Personal notes regarding the description of

"Overprint" & "Hand Stamp"

If you are a collector of these overprints, Hand Stamps, you will find that many

Catalogues refer to them as "Pre-cancels" and initially I also made the same

reference.

However over the years that I have been collecting I have had the opportunity to

examine many used Contract Notes with overprinted stamps attached, and mostly they

have been further cancelled by either a manuscript signature or date, or by a Company

cachet.

This being mostly the case, then the actual overprint as such I would regard as an

overprint and not a cancel, just like the Commercial overprints on Postage stamps.

I also believe that the overprints were printed onto the stamps whilst in the mint sheet

again like the Commercial overprints on postage stamps, and were printed in this way

as an anti theft devise.

The Hand Stamps, I would consider to be cancellations rather than overprints.

So in conclusion it is my personal view that the overprints are true security overprints

and only the hand stamps are a cancel as such.

NOTE : - All hand stamps featured below are marked so.
