What happened to my post answering the same question listed in the Middle East section?
At least rr and I provided the same answer!
It was a duplicate post, so it was removed.
It's not a big deal for me Michael but I had already replied to the post that was deleted.
The duplicate was posted in the wrong topic, so this one prevailed as it is in the correct one. Sorry for the confusion.
I seem to missing finding these 2 stamps. The overprints I can see except with an additional overprint on the overprint (Like Scott # 331 and 338).
I would appreciate any help in finding the catalog numbers.

Hi Doug,
These two are Scott #331 and #B15.
Scott #336-#339 have the additional "B" overprint as shown in the illustration immediately after #335.
Thank you for your help. Scott catalog is not very helpful in identifying these stamps.
Doug
You're welcome.
Yes, I agree.
The structure of the Scott listing for these issues has a certain logic but it can be very confusing when you first look at it and there have been a lot of discussions about this problem before, both here and on other boards.
I have some other stamps from Turkey and two stamps that I am not sure they are from Turkey.
Thank you for any help.
Doug
Hi Doug,
The second stamp is an early Saudi stamp from the Kingdom of Hejaz-Nejd.
This is Scott Saudi Arabia #100 from 1926.
The third stamp is Liannos Local Post Constantinople, from 1865. However, it is most likely to be a forgery
The first stamp is Scott Turkey #B8 from 1916.
The last stamp is from the Ankara Government, Scott Turkey in Asia #82 from 1922.
Thank you nigelc and DaveSheridan for you help. Much appreciated.

Is this stamp from Turkey or is it Egypt? I can not find it in Scott Catalog.
Thanks for your help.

Further to the revenue ---

Inscribed damgha masriya (Egyptian Tax) in center
I have huge respect for people who collect these areas and countries. I have an envelope labeled G.O.K. ( think! ) that has several from these areas. I prefer to find them myself ( I'm weird like that ) but it is very difficult! Good luck all you collectors of these types of stamps!
Can anyone help me identify this surcharged Turkey stamp?
