Very little has been written about Luxembourg revenue stamps or stamped paper, and even less about Luxembourg communal revenue stamps. The basic reference remains John Barefoot's BENELUX REVENUES, now in its second edition. This blog builds on and adds to the existing literature, and attempts to inspire others to share information about Luxembourg revenue philately. The revenues from the 140 communes are featured on a separate blog: www.luxcommunalrevenuestamps.blogspot.com .

Luxembourg Courtage Revenues
Back Side
Front
Caisse D'Épargne de L'État
Luxembourg
1 Oct 1957
11F Commission Paid
with 5F and 6F Courtage Revenues
on the back side
Barefoot (Benelux Revenues, 2nd ed. 2007) lists 10 denominations of the Courtage revenue stamp: 3F, 7F, 8F, 9F, 12F, 16F, 17F, 30F, 40F, and 100F.
In addition, I have seen 1F, 5F, 14F, 50F, 100F, and 200F denominations. Others may exist. Research in the government journal is needed to establish a comprehensive list of denominations.
Barefoot also lists a 50F on 16F surcharge of the basic stamp. I have also seen 40F on 14F and 100F on 17F surcharges. Surely others must exist.
Last, Barefoot lists six denominations of the basic stamp overprinted 2%: 10F, 30F, 40F, 50F, 100F, and 200F. I have also seen 3F, 5F, 7F, and 8F denominations with the 2% overprint. Again, others likely exist.
The underprint on the Courtage revenue reads: Societe de la Bourse de Luxembourg.
