To distinguish the year of this stamp one would have to: 1st, check the perforations with a perforation gauge. 2nd, determine if the paper is water-marked (and with which mark). The check a good catalogue (old ones are cheap and great for help in identification of classic stamps.) [The prices change all the time so you only need a new and costly catalogue to get current pricing when you decide to sell.] There were a number of variations from 1916 through 1932 appearing to be the same stamp, in this long running series.
Can't tell these apart without measuring and careful inspection.
I recommend this to everyone interested in collecting stamps: You need a perforation gauge, watermark detector & fluid, and stamp tongs. They are inexpensive "must-haves" for every collector to detect which stamps they actually have, not overlook the differences, nor harm what they have found. Happy stamping!

Thanks for the info! The only book I have is a 2005 Scott Specialized Catalong of United States Stamps and Covers. Does not even mention these Stock Transfer Stamps with the other Stock Transfers. I have a Perforation Gauge, watermark detector and everything else. Will try to find a catalog that lists these stamps! Thanks again!
