Does not look like the "man on the mast"..Regular Scott 158 stamp.

Depends on your definition of high value. My 2006 Scott catalog gives the mint 20c Edward VII a value of $500 and the 50c Bluenose a value $175. If they are certified no hinge it more than doubles their value.

Market value on both - assuming both hinged - somewhere around $80-120 - bluenose (Sc 158) looks toned, King Eddy (Sc 94) damaged spot. Never hinged obviously higher. The Edward has a higher CV, but folks love to own a nice mint Bluenose...

But alas, I dont want to be bearer of bad news but----I detect a bent perf on the bottom left corner of 158. Another 10% reduction. And what is that, donut in sky below scroll but in front of forward sail, a pinhole? A big deduction if it is. As gmot mentioned 158 a bit toned looking, and Eddy has a surface scrape?

Inkstarvation. Does not add to value in my opinion
