The stamp is normally a $1-$2 item, however the stamp you illustrate has what Loran C. French describes as a "heavy scratch or crack from bottom frame up through E of CENT and second B of BALBOA" in his book "Encyclopedia of Plate Varieties on U.S. Bureau-Printed Postage Stamps", which makes it a premium plate variety, and quite uncommon.

Offering anything for sale through Facebook is not a way of determining a real market value for anything, but this has been covered in other recent threads.

Yes, they have a section called Marketplace. Members post pictures and prices. You contact the person and meet-up and trade money for sale items. Works well.

So it will be offered with a net price? And if I'm interested in it, I have to find it first?
