I'm curious what a serie like this is actually worth? It's the non watermarked kind. Catalogue (stampworld.com) rates them for 1000EUR but they're hinged, the blue one damaged and I suppose you don't get catalogue value anyway. It will help me estimate the value of the rest of my collection.  |

Paul, you got the wrong year marked, I think these are in the 1800's! Besides, hinged is no problem for used stamps, only for mint stamps. Again, stampworld is for reference only. The price is what they want, which does not have a thing to do with catalog value. They list most stuff way too high!

Gibbons 2010 CV, assuming fine condition and not taking account of varieties (it's not possible to tell from the pictures which precise issue these are):
first row: £1.40; £15; and £29;
second row: around £1 each.
So a few pounds in street value, bearing in mind the blue and orange has no value. |

Is the blue and orange one actually damaged, or is it a printing error? The cancellation seems to on top of the unprinted area. |

I can't tell spain_1850 the backside of the stamp is perfectly fine underneath the white spot, it just seems the ink is missing. I certainly lack in expertise to tell you more! |

Paul, if you go the ebay route you would have to look at what others are doing. Most folks that are pricing their stamps too high are not selling them. In my opinion the best way is to start low; stamps that are worth it will get bid up anyway! I think 80 euros is way too high for those! Peter |

Unless these are scarcer varieties, which is unlikely, £5-10 (at best) would probably be realistic. |

The "blue and orange" is vertically laid for sure. The "rose and green" might be vertically laid, I can't tell for sure. The other ones are horizontally laid for sure.
They're all perf 14.5 as far as I can tell.
Might they not be worth a little more? |
