Please could you help me identify and value these 3 stamps? Thank you.

PR2, PR3 & PR4 were issued 1865, PR5, PR6 & PR7 were issued 1875.
All the above stamps were issued “NGAI” (No Gum as Issued).
Be advised, I recommend getting these certified by APS, PSE or another reputable authentication company known to deal with US Stamps in order to ascertain which you may have.
All quoted CVs (Catalog Values) are from Scott Specialized Catalogue of US Stamps & Covers 2025.
