SKU RS4041

China 1897 (Jan) 4c on 3c deep red 'Red Revenue', ‘large’ surcharge as type 19, SG90.

A fine mint example with large part original gum. A challenging stamp to find in this quality.

In 1897, the new Qing Dynasty government took charge of the Post Office. There was an immediate need for a large quantity of stamps, especially those of high value. While waiting for the delivery of new stamps from Japan a Provisional Issue was made using existing stock from the Imperial Customs.

A quantity of 600,000 of the 3c Revenue stamps received from England were surcharged with different values.
