    3v British South Africa Co.,

    Is this all Fiscal Used?

    I find the £10 Value is valuable.

    How best to list in Catagory in Delcampe?

    The £10 is a revenue stamp. You can see this on the cancel where most of the word revenue can be seen. Postally used these are incredibly rare simply because there was no postal need for these stamps. £10 was an incredible value in those days!

    I believe British South Africa became Rhodesia (though I do stand to be corrected if I'm wrong) and they should be listed there and not under South Africa.

    You still have a the problem of where to list them under Great Britain (former colonies and protectorates)/Rhodesia because there is no BSAC category or period. I list mine under 'unclassified'.
