Hello from have Kentucky! I'll cut right to the chase: I went to an estate auction today and bought a box full of very old checkbooks, stock books, ledgers, etc. As I was flipping through one of the old checkbooks from 1908, 6 stamps fell onto the floor. 3 are still stuck together, 2 are stuck together, and there is a single one. They are "new" in mint condition and as far as I can tell from web research, they are the Scott #321 George Washington 2 cent stamp. Do these things have any value? I can post pictures if you like :) THANKS for any response!

Welcome nitrox28! Sounds like you got some real neat stuff! Keep an eye out for the revenue stamps on documents in that lot and don't remove them (makes them more desireable). and then scan them..lol Again, WELCOME!
