Sorry I tried to edit the post by adding in a photo and seem to lose all the old text oh well I will re wite it again.

I won a auction today of a old dog eared ratty album. In it was a block of 6 of the above stamps lightly cancelled, The scott # is 316 and I have found out that cataloge vale for used in good condition is $47 any one know what the value would be of a block of 6. PS there was also one single of the same stamp which down the road I will be putting up for auction on this site once I hit the 50 post.
As this site is great for information I will donate 75%of the sale to this site

I think #316 is the twenty-cent issue; I think the twenty-dollar issue is #327.

It would be neat to see a scan of the block, if possible.

Don't mean to nit pick, but does it have a watermark? The 327 issued in 1976-81 is unwatermarked. Whereas the same stamp was issued originally in 1973 (SC#288) with watermark #314 and again in 1975-78 (SC#288a) with watermark 373. And though I have an old catalogue (2003) the values for these earlier issue is somewhat less.
Just wondered.

Sorry as I said I don't have a current catalogue. But in 2003 the values were as follows
228 - $20 used for a single stamp
228a - $19 "
327 - $55
Fingers crossed for you!
