I was just going through my grand-uncles belongings left to me and found a few stamps. some of which are Benjamin Franklin 1 cent stamps. please let me know if they are of any value and what the next step would be if they are of value. any advise or expertise on the matter would really help me out, thanks

You might post your question/inquiry in the US Classic Stamp Mint and Used found here https://goscf.com/f/15

I *think* your stamps date from that time period, but I'm a newbie at stamp identifying and have no clue about values.

Good luck.

They are common stamps from 1908-1923, worth from a penny or two up to perhaps .20, depending on perforation. The two together at the bottom seem to be a coil line pair (catalogue value is $.75 but no one pays full catalogue value; the pair might be worth .10 or .20 to a dealer, more if you found a direct buyer who wanted exactly that. But finding that kind buyer is what you need a dealer for and the dealer won't buy at the end-sale price). The first two singles, if perforated 10x10 rather than 11x11 (measure them against the coil pair at the bottom--the coil pair should be perforated 10 vertically, so if the top two match the coil stamps at bottom, they are Scott 581 rather than 552. (581 also differs from 552 by being rotary press, slightly wider than the 552 flat plate, but you'd need a genuine 552 to compare with your stamp in order to determine. It's easier to go by perforations.)

But yes, this really belongs on the US Classics Forum where the real experts hang out.

JHP to SCF . Where are you from and what are your interests pertaining to stamps? Are you just wanting to know values of your stamps from your Grand Uncle? Yea like already stated the stamps you pictured are common stamps with no value. Maybe 2-4 cents each at the most.

thanks for the info
