So I'm going now through the "junk" pile of Manila sheets. Came upon these. Looking on ebay, I see sold prices for these ranging from $1.50 to like $200.

Am I correct that because these are heavily canceled they would be worth more the $1.50 range because the cancellations are only partially visible(?)

Thanks!

(Are any of these worth $5 or more do you think?) Thank you?

This stamp is extremely common and worth virtually nothing...

Could you take a screen shot or show us a link? These are worth less than a penny each, if you could even find a buyer.

Highly dubious - two of the "sellers" have zero feedback. These are penny stamps, so, if you see sales at high prices, there'll generally be something murky going on.

Fosters Finest, I think you are taken in by these scheisters. You would do good to find a catalog - go to Mystic for instance and get their pricelist. And whatever you do, do not buy any of these nonsense items at inflated prices

I'm not as experienced as many of the other folks on here but I have hundreds of these 1c Washingtons from when I was a teenager all wrapped up into bundles of 100. As was mentioned, they're extremely common.

You're going to see all kinds of things on ebay and I think sometimes people just put things up there with outrageous prices to see if someone will bite. I don't think those links you posted were actual sales, they were auctions that ended without a buyer and were re-listed. So the seller just keeps reposting the same thing trying to get a buyer.

The suggestion to check out retail prices from a catalog or a website from a place like Mystic is a good one. That will get you in the ballpark. But you won't be able to charge that price on ebay if you want to actually move the item.

Good luck!
