Superb U with absolutely huge margins on all sides, tied by 2 strikes of "Post Office / Ladysmith" in red. One assumes that some larger package was being sent and the sender or postal clerk decided that it is simpler to use this 3/- instead of multiples of lower values (or due to temporary shortage of them). While the embossed postage stamps only went up to the 1/- value, to a non-philatelist the "postage" and the "revenue" stamps would have looked part of the same issue. The rarity of this item is twofold, first the "Post Office / Ladysmith" is an extremely rare pmk known in only a tiny number of examples (this piece has 2 nice strikes in red!), second this is the only recorded example of the 3/revenue with any Post Office cancel! Bft 7, SG unlisted but its value would have to be rated in comparison to the rarity of the 9d or the 1/stamps. An amazing & unique 1st issue postal fiscal usage! 1993 BPA & 2006 Ceremuga photo-certs.
