Extremely rare postally used "on piece" examples of the 1915 issue "War Tax" provisionally overprinted postal/fiscal 20c olive green and 50c black (x 2) GeoV Admirals. Razor sharp "DOLLARTON B.C. MR 19 '16" split-ring CDS postmarks, with "in period" usage. Partial "R" Registration marking helps to identify and justify the high value ($1.20) use of these stamps. A War Tax showpiece, conservatively valued as Fine used examples of the stamps but worth more! 2023 Unitrade =
