They are pesky little bugs. I'm going to go out on a limb and say that this is either a savings stamps or a revenue. As such, they won't be found in the standard catalogs.
Thank you! I am relieved that I had just not overlooked it in the catalogue!

Marked "Republic of China Postal Service Bureau" says my source, which might rule out revenues.
As might this little treasure that googled-up:

Addendum: source two says that the characters on the left side read "Savings". Denomination: One Yuan.
I have looked in all of the usual places, both in the catalogue and on line. I also searched here on StampoRama. Would appreciate some help. Thanks.
