6-Fr. Floret Effets du Commerce 
used on a bank draft in 1927

According to Barefoot, 22 perforate Effets de Commerce revenues with floral ornaments appeared in 1922 with the tax increased to 10c per 100 francs. He lists nine centime denominations printed in green, nine intermediate franc denominations in blue, and four high denominations in red. Can we add any denominations to his listing? He also indicates that these stamps can be found perforate 11, 11x11½, and 11½. Do you agree? We'd better check our collections!

Here the 6-franc (for bank drafts ranging from 5,000 Frs. to 6,000 Frs.) is used on a draft dated
18 November 1927 for 5,060 Frs. from the Grand Garage Emile Dondelinger, Luxembourg - 7, Rue Schmitz drawn on the Banque Général du Luxembourg in favor of a payee in Glabach (Mersch), with the stamp pen canceled "E. Dondelinger 18 November 1927."

Who has the other denominations on drafts? I'd like to add scans of them to the website.
