British Guiana, Swiss And Other Old Stamps

Hi all! I deal with Russian and Chinese stamps, I found old stamps of British Guiana, Swiss, Australia and others...

How to understand their value $$?

Thx!

Nice stamps. You can always check the sold items on ebay or go to www.stampworld.com to find theit value
By the way, the "Swiss" stamp is a cut-out from a postal stationery item - try Austria?

Peter

Thanks for the answer! What can you say about these stamps?

The Australian Specimens that you posted are all very nice and desirable. Per my Australian catalog (ACSC 152), you have 53xf (shaved P), which is valued at AUS$1000, 49xd (shave P), valued at AUS$1750 and 56xb, valued at AUS$500. If mint never hinged, they have a higher value. Good find ... keep the pictures coming.

Thank you, I have a large album with foreign stamps, from where I pulled out these stamps. But in Russia they are difficult to sell, *** Edited by Staff - Please review the rules that you agreed to when you registered. ***

Sorry. No sales allowed in this forum until you reach 50 Quality posts. Plus, unfortunately, there would be a lot of "trust" issues with anything coming from Russia at this time. (Difficulty of tracking shipments, etc.) Stick around, however, and post your questions and answers. You should get to 50 posts in no time.

Ohh, ok! Then I will show more stamps that cause me questions, if it does not violate the rules of the forum. I am also an expert in the stamps of Russia and the USSR, as well as China, and may be useful in other topics of the forum.

For example, such stamps, are there any good ones?

And above I sent stamps of Switzerland, are they good?

If these are going to be your questions:




Then the suggestion from Peter about going to Stamp World is a good one. You can also view ebay Sold listings to see what people are willing to pay for something.

If, instead, your questions are going to be about an odd variety that you noted, or whether the cancellation is from XX or YY, then please post those for all to see and answer. Just asking if something is Good or Rare usually won't get you much responses.

In the catalog, I understand how to search, my question is, are there outright falsifications and reprints here?

Stamp Forgeries would be one place to search

I'm sure that the Swiss stamps were covered somewhere in this forum.

Here's an older post with some examples of Switzerland:

You can also google "Album Weeds" to download an older PDF of forgeries. A little hard to read, but the price is right.

Peruse the "Search" function above next to "FAQ". There is also a Switzerland forum. Fun batch of stamps you have pictured.

Thank you all for your advice, I will check my materials.

I have a question about this stamp, genuine or forgery? According to the Michel, this is a rare stamp.

The 30 sen Japan stamp looks like a common Wada forgery

Your first two stamps are likely reprints. This issue was not issued perforated, but reprints were. Also your stamps are matching colors of the reprints orange red for 1p and sky blue for 4p. The paper also look thin which is also a condition for reprint. Stanley Gibbons catalog price reprints at 14 pounds each. Market value probably around $5. The Austrian Newspaper stamp (in picture with Kangaroos) looks like a crude forgery from afar. Swiss stamps are minefield for forgeries. Need good scans of each stamps for anyone to make a judgement call. The German stamp next to a Japanese one is a very common stamp. Break.

Question about the identification of these stamps, I understand it rhodes occupation?
