The bottom four have little to no value. The top two "Seahorses" probably catalog for $70 or more, but they are tricky to ID.

parcel post cancel on the 5/ not desirable. bottom 4 are about $10. If the 2.50 blue is prussian blue it would be catalog around $12,000. Probably yours is just blue, I can't tell from the scan.

The "seahorses" value depends of various things. Earlier printings had horizontal lines behing the king's head... later ones had horizontal and diagonal lines. Various printers did the stamps and value depends on which printer. Stamps with fine perforations and light cancels will be valued more.

The 1935 Jubillee stamps are catalogued at around 10 UK pounds, as already mentioned, in really good condition. These are available for 20% of cat value in good condition. Your stamps look "tired" and one has damage so are worth only a couple of pounds.

If you search 'Prussian Blue' here you will find many threads. Here is one relating to your particular stamp:

your stamp is certainly not a Prussian Blue. Even allowing for it being in a dirty state, it is still around seven shades away from
a Prussian Blue.
