I picked these up at the latest Bourse, but don't have a Stanley Gibbon's to verify most recent value. Any help would be appreciated.

The first items seem to be identified correctly, and I verified the watermarks.


This next one is Scott 297, but I don't know the SG number. It has a very difficult watermark to see, but is listed as Sideways, Inverted.

None of the GB issued stamps are labelled correctly. The "Ei" should be "Wi"
I don't have an up to date S.G.Concise as I don't collect anything GB beyond 1980.
My 2010 Concise lists 690Wi at £6.00, 694Wi at £5.00, 695pWi at £2.00.
A non-phosphor stamp 695Wi would catalogue in excess of £100 so worth checking for phosphor bands or lack of.

I can't help with the British Virgin Islands stamp but my 2018 SG gives the following catalogue values for the 4 GB stamps:

SG 690 - £6 but with phosphor bands £170

SG 694 - £5

SG 695 - £2 but without phosphor bands £150

SG 714 - £30 but with phosphor bands £90

Thanks Bobby. I have the lower value of the ones that you listed (phosphor, no phosphor). SCF comes through again.
