Hello,

I found these stamps in my father's collection. Could anyone please let me know if these stamps are worth anything?

Thanks,

The ones I see do not have any value over a few cents apiece.

It's a case of: "it's not the destination but ride there" and yes they are interesting but not terribly valuable. I hope this helps some.

I think these 3 hold the most value:

Could be one of the following: Scott #248 {My personal choice}, #250, #265, #266, #267, #279Bc



Could be either Scott #332 {again this one personal choice} or a #375

None of those stamps have any real value, they're all quite common.

If you're planning on building the collection, it's a great starting point.

To put it in perspective, about 90% of the stamps we collect really aren't worth too much at all but it's just such a thrill to get that "no-value" stamp to fill that spot in your album that's been buggin you forever. So if you don't have it and you need it then it suddenly becomes valuable!

In the second photo down, in the center towards the bottom, there is a stamp upside down underneath another stamp. It might be worth something, but maybe not.
