I was hoping to get some insight on the dollar amount I should be asking for the stamps in the photos? What do you think is a fair price, that would also sell them quickly?

Thanks,
DS

As GeoffHa says, you have quite a bunch of damaged stamps there, and a damaged stamp is not worth anything. If you clean this batch up a bit and post them for 99 cents you might get a bite.

You have some red stamps marked "rotary 11 x 10.5 + imperf". the one on the is from a booklet and looks to be clipped such that it shows some of the neighboring stamp.

It's not considered imperf, as it has perforations on two sides. But if it is not damaged,hard to tell from your photo, you might get a dollar for it as an EFO (error, freak or oddity).

agreed--throw the damaged ones away, i.e., folded, a corner missing and from what I've seen, yes 0.99 cents is a great starting point--now those one cent franklins, if the were only 'perf' one the top/bottom--you would have some coin as well as if they were were only perffed on two sides(vert) you'd have some coin there I tell ya---good luck and keep posting those pic's..you might just find something..nice pic's

Please carefully remeasure the perforations on these two and please provide us with detailed scans of them:

I answered your question in another post - you must have posted this twice.
