Newfoundland Customs Duty Stamps

Greg Doll

Need a little help on these as I do not have a Canadian catalog available to me right now and they do not appear to be Scott listed. Needing catalog name, catalog number and a current value. The one cent probably has no or not much value as it has been torn and repaired with a hinge. The 5 cent however is lightly hinged and has almost all original gum. Your help with these is greatly appreciated.

Phil,

If you google it you can find out. Everything is available on google.
I assume that is a stamp for a fee to do things such as title search etc.

Greg Doll

Thanks Wayne. Those are numbers I've seen for these...just didn't know from what catalog. Greatly appreciated!

The Newfoundland Specialized Stamp Catalogue (NSSC) has them listed as CD4 & CD5. The 1 cent green is valued at 3USD Mint and 2 USD Used. The 5 cent red violet is valued at 5USD Mint & 3USD Used. On document or cover they are both valued at $250USD. My copy of the catalogue is a little older so values may be slightly different in the latest issue.

Thank you Robert! Great help!

Greg,

No problem.

Bill, On that site I found something that puzzles me. What is a Manitoba Search Fee stamp?

Robert Tucker

I don't know if this information helps much, but I find it confusing when NFLD issues are categorised as Canada. NFLD did not become a part of Canada until 1948, when its own stamps ceased to 'exist'.

Robert Mercer

Newfoundland became part of Canada in 1949 and Newfoundland stamps were valid for use in Canada. They still remain valid for use today. In addition, Newfoundland Inland Revenue stamps were in use well into the 1960s.
