Great Britain 1700/1900 - GB: 初期のエンボス収入印紙、サイファー・シール - 旧時代コレクション出品 - アルバムページ
1. Historical Analysis: Cypher Seals vs. Embossed Revenues
Cypher Seals (1701–1900s): These are small, colorless embossed seals featuring the Royal Cypher (e.g., AR for Anne Regina, GR for Georgius Rex). They were originally applied to vellum documents to secure the blue revenue stamps or "cypher labels".
Early Embossed Revenues: These "blind" or colored (vermilion/blue) embossings were struck directly onto legal documents (deeds, leases, indentures). In 2026, collectors prioritize "cut-outs" that retain the original Cypher Label and Tin/Lead Staple, which held the seal to the parchment
