Cut Square Error Stamps, Value?

Ok, I bought these cut square error stamps on a whim. Any idea of postal history cut square error stamp, wearing Washington and over and under inked stamps?

Over and under inked stamps 5% above Scott
Partial albino depends upon how much is occluded
Filled (missing) letters are frequently priced in Bartels

"Over and under inked stamps 5% above Scott"

Agree. Though, if I saw one for sale that wasn't accompanied by set-off on the inside, as they usually are, I'd bid it up.

". . . wearing Washington . . ."

I think that's "weeping" Washington.

The common ones simply have a blob of ink right below the eyebrow (see OP).

If you can find one that is comprised of 2 or more small "droplets", forming a line coming down from the eye area, snatch it! If the seller described it enticingly (is that a word?), it should hit the $10-$20 range.

The big caveat: since there is no catalog for these things, prices are highly dependent on who is bidding. If 2 or more avid EFO collectors are at the table, then

Missing or partial letters:

The ideal EFO of this type is one where complete letters are filled in (100%), and all the rest are normal (i.e., as they would look on a pristine envelope).

Any partial letters, weakly filled letters (i.e., you can "see" the underlying missing letter(s)), or a mix of qualities will drag the value down rapidly.

In the OP's set of cut squares, the left 2 in row 3 are examples of partial letters (blue paper example), and weakly filled letters (white paper example). Both are typical of this EFO type.

Other examples:


The missing N in WASHINGTON is a prime example of a missing letter. The few gaps in the ribbon lines are moderately negative.


This missing U in UNITED is a very nice EFO, even though the underlying strike exhibits a worn and tired die.

If they were being offered on ebay, I'd be $20-$40 range. The OP's two missing or partial letters examples were likewise on ebay, I'd put my paddle down at $5-$10, depending on how I felt that day.
