Postage Dues 1930 Value??

The first step to valuation is identification. Typically this can be done with a catalogue available at many public libraries.

Looking in my "SCOTT Specialize Catalogue of U.S.Stamps and Covers," I would say these stamps are:

• 1/2¢ SCOTT # J69 or J79 (precise identification is based upon perforation measurement)


• 1¢ SCOTT # J70 or J80 (precise identification is based upon perforation measurement)


• 2¢ SCOTT # J71 or J81 (precise identification is based upon perforation measurement)


• 3¢ SCOTT # J72 or J82 (precise identification is based upon perforation measurement)


• 5¢ SCOTT # J73 or J83 (precise identification is based upon perforation measurement)

In my personal experience, the J80 series is readily available in mass surplus. Personally, I have not seen many of the J70 series. I will not quote values due to the age of my catalogue.

I should have mentioned the resource at StampSmarter.com, specifically the identification tool 1847usa: http://www.stampsmarter.com/1847usa/1847Home.html

Within the 1847usa identifier, this page references the depicted stamps. http://www.stampsmarter.com/1847usa...Due1930.html
