Thanks for sharing. This looks like a common collection. I’m not seeing anything with any significant value.
Unfortunately it does not.
All of the stamps are common with little to no value. The commemorative pages are novelty items and don’t have any resale value.
Thanks for sharing. These are all common and are worth face value in postage if used, or around 60% face value resale.
Thanks for sharing. This looks like a youth collection. All common with no value.
You can request an appraisal here. Or a list of other stamp appraisers here. You definitely do not have any stamps from the 1700s. The first stamp…
Thanks for sharing. These are all common and have no resale value in terms of the stamps. The postcards themselves may be worth a dollar or so to a po…
Thanks for sharing. These stamps are common and have no value.
These are referred to as gold replica stamps. They are a novelty item, common, and do not have enough gold in them to make it worth anything. You’d ne…
I’m not seeing any grill. A grill will look like a waffle pattern in the paper. Example
Maybe worth about $10-$20 for all 3. If they were better centered or graded could worth more.
They are both common and have no value. The first one is a regular #300. There is a variation of that stamp that is valuable, but it’s a coil version,…
Thanks for sharing. These are all common stamps and I don’t see anything that has any monetary value.
@jblaha I use full page vario sheets. 1 giant pocket. I put one cert in each page. Then I put the stamp in an approval card at the bottom of the page.
@jblaha thanks for your feedback and joining the community! 😊
You need to get a stamp grill measurement tool. I recommend this one. Then once you measure it, if it is one of the more rare grill sizes, you will ne…
Those appear to be Crystal Mounts. I do not recommend using those. They seal shut with adhesive and can damage the stamps perforations or cause bendin…
The one on the left is a Revenue stamp, and is common and doesn’t have much value. The ones on the right are better. They could be worth $100 or bette…
Thanks for sharing. This stamp is not from the 1700s. Its from the 1930s and it is commemorating George Washington who was president in 1789. It is co…
The duck stamps are the first issues but they look to be stained so likely not worth very much in that condition. The sheet of 13 cents stamps are wor…
These are all modern stamps that worth a percentage of face value. You can easily sell these by visiting our sister company Sell Unused Stamps
Thanks for sharing. These stamps are all common and have no resale. But they may make a good start for someone just starting out in the hobby, or for …
It’s hard to tell the bluish paper variety of the 5 cent, being that the design is blue. The ink from the press can, or washing the stamp can tone the…
Thanks for sharing! These are all common issues and have no resale value, even though they are near 100 years old. I cover a couple of these designs o…
Its hard to tell being that the exposure of the image is very bright. I would not be able to make a judgement based on this photo.
Thanks for sharing. The stamps themselves have no premium value. In fact they are worth a fraction of face value, perhaps $5 total. However the signat…
Hi @tomsaber ! Welcome to stamp collectors. This is a good place to learn more about philately and ask questions. Other good resources would joining …
Thanks for sharing. I would call this Very Fine and would value it at around $700-$800 retail.
For United States stamps, you can look up stamp values on this website here.For a more comprehensive list of stamp issues, but perhaps not as accurate…
The general rule of thumb is that all U.S. stamps issued after 1935 are worth face value, and sell in bulk at a fraction of face value. Depending on t…
These are all extremely common with no monetary resale value. But they would make great starter group for somebody new to the hobby.
I personally only collect U.S. stamps. I’ll leave this thread open so other members can post what they collect.
Thanks for sharing photos. I’m not seeing any single stamp that has any value. They are all common. It looks to be beginner or hobbyist collection. Yo…
Thanks for sharing. Based on the sample of photos this looks to be a beginner or childhood collection and is 99% likely to not have any retail value. …
Of the photos you posted, only this 2 cent stamp looks to be extremely fine centering and perhaps could be worth grading if it’s sound (without faults…
Thanks for posting your photos! Unfortunately I’m not seeing anything of any value. They all appear to be common, what a beginner or youth might colle…
These are mainly common with little to no value.
Thanks for your response. I suppose it will live in the “O” of EFO collecting for now.
To clean stamps I recommend using 1 cup water with a couple drops of dish soap and a cap full of hydrogen peroxide. Blend mixture, then soak the stamp…
These are from Belgium, perhaps Scott #3 & 4, 6 & 7, or 10 & 11 depending on watermarks.
I’m assuming it is hinged, based on the CV provided in the photo, as neither the listing or cert states the gum condition. I would estimate the retail…
What is the gum condition? In order for 491 to be authentic it must have no watermark. Also 491 only comes in carmine color, and this image looks more…
Brookman is the go-to I usually use for sheet values. I treat their pricing like a Scott catalogue value. I would aim to get anywhere from 10%-50% cat…
