Hi Phil,

These are high values from the 1960 set, "intended mainly for fiscal use" according to the SG catalogue which doesn't list them.

Scott's 2009 has this under the October 15, 1960 listing of the lower valued stamps:

"Stamps in 25r, 50r and 100r denominations
were also issued, but primarily for revenue
purposes. Value for the three stamps, $350."
