Hi Folks. So taking a break from my American stamps I came accross some interesting german ones.. The first (1/3 Groschen) I cant find anywhere in imperf. form- any ideas?.. But basically I am looking to find values of These. Thank you in advance to anyone who can help.
The middle picture is Scott# 3, the 2013 catalog value for a single used stamp is $37.50. Not sure of the value for a pair. The bottom one is Scott 33, 2013 CV is $18.00 The real world value of them is probably around 20-50% of that value, depending on the seller and venue.
I'm not certain about the top picture, but I'm supposing it's a cut corner from a printed postal card or stamped envelope. I only have a Scott catalog at the moment and Scott doesn't list postal stationery but Michel might.
so just came accross this site.. can These be correct?.. I guess I sould bring them somewhere to be looked at. I would be very surprised if These are my stamps as I bought them in a secondhand Album I found in a stamp shop in Germany. I got the whole Album for 25- .. and it was the american stamps in it I was after. http://www.frimindeks.dk/Germany/dr...50%20pf.html
All of the pictured stamps are from 1875-77. The 3pf is valued at $5.25, the 10 and 20pf at $1.50 ea. and the 50pf at $11.00. The usual caveats about catalog value apply. I see complete sets of this set (Scott 29-35, total CV $53.50) for under $10 all the time.
The first image, of a green 1/3 groschen indicia, was cut from a newspaper wrapper. This was the only form of postal stationary to use this. It paid the printed-matter rate, which was much less than that for a letter.
