Nice early stuff on the top couple of rows. The junk series are interesting because of the changes over the years. Were released several times with minor variations. What's the denomination of the two colour stamp on the top row? I assume it's $1. Depending whether it's a London printing or Peking printing it could be worth a couple of dollars or a couple of cents.
The rest looks like a mixture of Mainland China and Taiwan. That green doves and globe is quite pretty.
But otherwise, not a lot of $$ value here that I can see.

Speculators don't care about catalog values. Just smile and enjoy your windfall.

About half the reprints are pretty easy to identify, because of minor design or perforation differences. The rest are paper/shade differences that are usually very difficult to ID via scans.

If you want to know whether you have reprints or originals, post the pics. If you do, post them one stamp set at a time, as the design differences are pretty minute.

Almost all CTOs are reprints.

Congratulations. I've sold China on ebay before and have never had more than one or two bidders per lot. Well done. You picked the right day.
