I believe those 3 pages should be deleted as out of Numista's scope

Meaning the book too, right?

Hello,

 

I clarified the guidelines, as they were not updated following the last discussion on the topic.

The guidelines now mention that the “stamps and other papers serving as a proof for tax payment or for a control” are out of the scope of Numista (https://en.numista.com/help/scope-of-the-numista-catalogue-200.html).

I removed the 3 narcotics tax stamps from the catalogue.

 

I'm not sure whether we should remove the catalogue “Scott Specialized Catalogue of United States Stamps & Covers” though. @JLHare mentioned that the catalogue could useful for tokens such as N#99780, which are in the scope of Numista.

I did not find the one I link as being in the reference. Not sure why I linked it. I did find the following in the reference and have added it along with the varieties mentioned in it.

 

Token - J. Gault Ayer's sarsaparilla (encased stamp) - United States – Numista

 

Also, here is a link that discusses the reference (2020 Edition) as being a good source for the encased stamps

Interestingly, U.S. encased postage stamps are the subject of an article in the E-Sylum of last week: https://www.coinbooks.org/v28/esylum_v28n06.html#article19

 

In the article, Heritage Auctions recommend 3 catalogues for encased stamps, but not Scott:

  • HB numbers: The Standard Catalogue of Encased Postage Stamps by Michael J. Hodder and Q. David Bowers
  • EP numbers: Paper Money of the United States 23rd edition by Arthur L. and Ira S. Friedberg
  • Reed numbers: Civil War Encased Stamps The Issuers and Their Times by Fred L. Reed III
