I went through the Scott's Catalogue "Identifier," and, after much angst, I have not a clue as to identification of these stamps. Your comments please! Image Not Found

These are revenues from the India Feudatory State of Faridkot

(see India, way in the back of the listing for Faridkot)

They are not listed in Scott.

Happy

P.S.

They are also upside down in your image

A side note;

you may also find these issues unperfed - if so, these were invalid for use.

I think they may be upside down too. It looks like the numbers are on the bottom, but should be oriented on the top.

Thanks, Randy, for the information. I have one of those stamps, and wasn't sure what it was either. Unfortunately mine is imperf...It sits in my Cinderella stock book.

Thanks for the help. When I took the pic., I questioned whether the stamps were right or upside down! Ugh!
