Embossed 1919 Additions 15/- to £100

[Revenuer]

I only have 3 of these values.

I have recorded

7 x 15/-

4 x 30/-

2 x £25 [one shown in Craig & Ingles, one below]

1 x £50 [the one shown in Craig & Ingles]

0 x £100

The £100 is known and seen by me on presentation sheets.

Pics below are my 3 values can others add to this thread the missing values. I am hoping to flush some new info out on this issue.

Many thanks to Revenuer for these images.

What is the basis for assuming that these high values were first issued in or after 1919?
At any rate they were withdrawn from use by 1956 as they were destroyed then.

These dates are given in Craig & Ingles.

Thanks, Dave.

Is there any information out there as to what transactions required
duty stamps of such high denominations (up to £100). The amount
of money involved in a transaction requiring £100+ of duty would be
enormous - how many tens or hundreds of thousands of pounds if I
may ask?
