I am recently back into stamp collecting and I thought I would share some of my penny box finds from my childhood in the early 1970's. I am not sure if these have any big value as I have not yet tried to look up the numbers. The 3 cent green in the top row has what looks like an iron cross cancellation. There is also a strip of 4 Treasury Dept. stamps and an inverted overprint.
Anyone else have any cool stamps from a penny box?

Well, penny boxes are now nickel or dime boxes, and they sure as heck don't have material like that in them.

Can you post a better image of the U.S. 3c 1857 (5th from left) in the top row?
