Description: The Stamp Act of 1765 (short title Duties in American Colonies Act 1765; 5 George III, c.) was an Act of the Parliament of Great Britain that imposed a direct tax on the Thirteen Colonies and required that many printed materials in the colonies be produced on stamped paper produced in London, carrying an embossed revenue stamp. Printed materials included legal documents, magazines, playing cards, newspapers, and many other types of paper used throughout the colonies. Like previous taxes, the stamp tax had to be paid in valid British currency, not in colonial paper money. You will be sent a Original dice only(nothing else in the picture) just like the one pictured (single just one) after 1765 it was die stamped, then red ink is applied in the stamping to prove that taxes had been paid on these Bone Dice ( always marked on the side with the 6 dots) marked with a red crown over a large "GR"( for King George the 3rd). The size is about 7/16 inch square also it's in great shape and would be a great addition to a American liberty collection.
