One Cent Franklin Stamp Error?

I own these stamps and after I have read a catalogue on line I decided to post them here and get some information. All three have deferent dimensions. The one I measured the middle one is 17 1/4 x 19 1/2. First left is about the same and the last is smaller of both others. Is any of them valuable? Thanks for replying.



*** Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. ***

Ken L. told you on another board these were COMMON....
this is your 2nd opinion....
They are COMMON....no value!

Agree. Very common, and minimal value.

Welcome, nikos. Don't mind the noise.

What have you read about these stamps that hints at their having value?

Hi to all, and good luck to all of us on stamp collecting. They are three deferent varieties?? None of them is the valuable or any value at all on any??

What about this one!?

OK thanks RGB, in the catalogue it is just the dimensions the only deference that referred about but I have read already last night in forum that it must to be the rotary one etc. Well a bit confusing.

with the 2 cent georges (1923-26)..best to check with gauges. rotary press with perfs 11x10 is around 40.00 scotts cat. value used.(579)..there are two colors..carmine, and deep carmine..if all sides of perforations are 11 with rotary press.(595).cat. value 120.00 used..Make sure not flat plate with perf. 11 all sides..worth about 1.50 cat. value mint..

with the coil stamps, rotary press..check for perforations 10 vertically (599)..it is 130.00 cat value unused..used about 7.00 cv.

With pairs..(554) flat plate, perforated 11, the horizontal pair with imperforated vertical lines..120.00
the Vertical pair, imperforated horizontal is cat. value 400.00.

I hope this information may be helpful to you for the 2 cent georges..

OK, cause I am newbie can you please explain what do you mean with : " 10 perforated" or "11"?? Thanks

blazenstar.....nikos5 is a newby.
Why even mention imperf horizontal??
or Coils....
It is a cheap common stamp.....both of them.

What is the value of these two please?

nikos5: welcome again to the forum. Perforations are the more common way of preparing stamps to be separated for use. Perforation means some paper is removed, with bridges of paper between the stamps, often called teeth. A "10 perforated" means that there should be ten holes in the space of two centimeters.

Your 2 cent stamp has minimal value. Notice that the perfs on the top cut badly into the design. Your one cent stamp on the left has the same problem, with the perfs on top cutting into the design.

Nikos, the last strip of two that you posted is a joint line pair. The green line in the middle of the two stamps is where two printing plates met. Value of this would be a little bit better, but since this is a very common stamp you really need to hang on to your daytime job for now!
