#236 Mnh Pair With Imprint. Not Sure How To Value It.

I love how the imprint is nicely centered. The stamps...not as well. Also has a few perf faults. I still like the look of it.
My Scott catalog doesn't have a listing for, Pair Imprint. Only strip of three, and blocks of four and six. Would SCV be somewhere between a single and a strip of three?

"Here, I have a pencil. Let me poke those holes for you."

Since both are just centered fine and left stamp is pulled perf at top, I would value them at 50% of the VF catalog value plus about 20% for the imprint.

Thanks Crouse77,
the problem I'm having is, what the catalog value would be.

KGB, alright I'll give an LOL for that

Hahaha, my work here is finished.

Retail is likely about $300 to $350 if they are mint, never hinged. Take a look at www.usphila.com and look up number 236. A virtually identical mnh pair sold at auction for $375.

cjpalermo1964, nice link, thanks. The pair is better than mine, might even be VF. So I'm going to apply Crouse77's numbers and say about $186. That top left perf bothers me more than the centering. I'm going to mark it as a value of $175.

I do this to try and keep some record of what I've paid for items as compared to what I think there value is.
I feel like I can justify the spending that way...

PS Mine are MNH

Nice Link cjpalermo1964, much appreciated.
