Many states have had tax stamps for marijuana and other street narcotics on the books for a long time already. You can still buy them and some are collectible [0]. They were used so they could add on even more jail time and so they could seize assets easily since taxes weren't being paid. There was a federal marijuana tax stamp too starting in the 30s I think but it was ruled partially unconstitutional (maybe in the early 70s?) since the way the law was written in order to purchase the stamp you had to incriminate yourself.
