Help Identify Please I Know Nothing About Stamps

Please help identify these stamps . I know nothing abut stamps accept I have a lot of them given to me in which a very old lady use to collect them but has since passed on

The first stamp is probably a #634 - very common
The 4th stamp is a #303, but has a tear at top and is way off center, so it has no value
The 5th stamp is a #114, but is way off center, so it has minimal value if the cancel is black, but if the cancel is green (which it looks like it might be on my monitor) then it has some value

Yes it looks green to me also when looking through a magnifier ...it's not black I can tell that much

The date in the cancel on that first stamp is historically interesting. It is exactly one week to the day before the day of the great stock market crash that brought on the Great Depression.

The last stamp (1c Franklin), the 4c above it, and the 5c blue with Lincoln above that all belong to the same series, the 2nd Bureau series of 1902. Unfortunately, all of the examples you have of those stamps are off center and low value to begin with, o they are barely saleable. There is almost no demand for common stamps in low grade, unless there is something else about them to attract attention, as in the case of that first stamp (at least mildly so).

The ultramarine 1c stamp with the New York cancel is the redesigned issue of 1881, Scott catalog number 206.

Ooops. You edited your list while I was writing.

Now the last stamp is the 2c red brown of 1883. Like all of the other 19th century stamps you have shown so far, it is way off center, and almost valueless except for the nice ellipse cancel with the number 13 in it. That makes it collectable.

Thank you for the info

the 2c Jefferson and 4c Lincoln look like they are on those static/sticky photo album pages which will totally destroy the condition of the stamps. Please remove them, carefully and quickly.

Thank you I had already removed them

If you have stamps and no safe way to store them a good trick is buy some stamps from the post office and ask for an envelope to put them in, you end up with a free envelope made for stamps

The one with the blue train is a US #114. A sought after stamp, but that's a bit off center to make a grade.
