In San Marino, one or more tax stamps were used on the box. All that I have seen were regular tax stamps, not especially made for playing-cards.

These are two stamps used between 1935 and 1939. They are cancelled with an additional ink stamp. The value is c. 25; the tax for the cards was c. 50.

These two (slightly damaged) stamps have been used between 1939 and 1943. They are cancelled with an additional ink stamp again. They have an overprinted value of c. 50 resp. Lire 1; the total tax for the cards was Lire 1.50 at this time. (scanned by Massimo Grossi / Claudio Talacci)

This stamp was in use after 1955 for luxury cards made of cardboard. It is a tax stamp for '50 cent.', overprinted with Lire 250 and cancelled with an additional ink stamp.

These are two stamps in use after 1955 for normal resp. luxury cards made of cardboard. They are tax stamps for Lire 150 resp. Lire 250, and the left stamp is cancelled with an additional ink stamp. (left stamp from Kay Stolzenburg, right stamp from Manlio Tosi)

This is another stamp in use after 1955, which would be suitable for luxury cards made of 'other material'. Actually, it has been used on a double pack of cards, instead of two stamps like the right stamp above. It is a Lire 500 tax stamp cancelled with an additional ink stamp.

For detailed information on the tax values see a separate table.
