翻訳と辞書　辞書検索 [ 開発暫定版 ] スポンサード リンク Red Revenue ： ウィキペディア英語版 Red Revenue The Red Revenues () are Qing dynasty Chinese revenue stamps that were overprinted (surcharged) to be used as postage stamps in 1897. Their limited number, fine design and the intaglio process made the stamps in this series some of the most sought-after in the world.〔Woo, L.Y. (吳樂園) (1983). Taipei: ''Overprinted Red Revenue Stamp Collection'' (紅印花加蓋郵票專集)〕〔Ministry of Transportation Post Office (1984). Taipei: ''Red Revenue stamps, Part I'' of 2 (紅印花郵票上編)〕 There are several varieties of Red Revenue stamps, with the "Small One Dollar" being the rarest and most valuable. It has been called "China's rarest regularly issued stamp". In a 2013 Hong Kong auction, a single stamp was sold for HK$ 6.9 million.〔 Another was sold in a 2013 Beijing auction for 7.22 million yuan. A block of four, considered the "crown jewel" of Chinese philately, was reportedly sold in 2009, together with a different stamp, for 120 million yuan (US$18.8 million).〔 == History == In January 1896, Censor Chen Pi of the Qing government petitioned the Guangxu Emperor to issue revenue stamps. The proof was submitted to Sir Robert Hart, the Inspector General of Customs, for approval. Of the revenue stamps ordered from England, only a portion of the 3¢ stamps was printed and shipped to China. They were stored in the Shanghai Customs Department. The 3¢ red revenue stamps were printed by Waterlow & Sons in London. The red symbolizes good luck and fortune in Chinese tradition.〔〔 On March 20, 1896, the Qing government approved the plan to establish a national postal service, under the supervision of the Customs Department.〔Matthew Bennett, Inc. (2001) ''The "Sun" Collection of the 1897 Overprinted Red Revenue of China''. New York.〕 At the inauguration of the postal service in February 1897, the Coiling Dragon stamps ordered from Japan failed to arrive on time, hence the idling 3¢ red revenue stamps were overprinted to meet demand. There are five overprinted denominations: 1¢, 2¢, 4¢, $1 and $5.〔〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Red Revenue」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
