A recent personal example. I came across a cover that I liked because it was addressed to a famous person. It also had a US #1 and a letter. I inquired about wanting to see the letter and ask for poss

I'm not expecting to get rich off these, but I would like to get a fair value for them. I'm pretty invested in other collectibles, mostly comics, and I just don't want to miss an Amazing Fantasy #15

that is supposed to be Cat #xxx, perf 12.5 and #1 wmk. I look it up in Scott and it says "1d lake". But hold on a minute, there's also a carmine/lake variety and it makes a big difference

I once had a stamp block which had a faint hinge mark. No matter what I did with the scanner I could not show it. Eventually it sold anyway. A really nice block of Canada Scott #158. The buyer was ple

Harry/Jerold, you win! It looks like it is #17

Wmk 33 Scott #159-172

How does one tell if a stamp is from the Great Britain series 159-172 or the series 187-200? I have a number of stamps with watermark 33 and others watermark 35. But my Scott catalogue mentions wat…

Michael, might want to recheck that bottom stamp. The value is in Kreuzer, which would make it Austria #14.

The bottom one is Austria (Lombardy-Venetia) Scott #13. However, check the perfs for possible reprint as indicated in the notes.

Austria #112

Can someone please tell me what (jr) refers to in the following description - #152 Used VF 1900 SCV $24.00 (jr) ???

Thank you all! These have been frustrating. And Jerold, the Belgium #19 baffles me! How could I miss it? So used to Leopold II, I guess.

Can anyone help with information on this pane of stamps from French Morocco. They are from the 1923 photogravure issue, 35 centimes but not violet (Scott #101). I have seen a gray shade in another c

All I see for French Morocco 121 is images of #122. When I go over to 122 I see more images of 122. I don't ever see any images of 121, which is a 30c turq blue overprinted. What's up with that!!! I'

Here's a picture of the back. The cancel ink doesn't have to fill the perforation holes, although it's nice if they do. Also at the Stamp club we did canceling of a specialty cover It's amazing ho…

Handstamped Galveston Tecas with S.S. Cancel. Large #10 type envelope.

Cannot find a sale or auction of a 187 blk of 4 on Cover. Can anyone help me find one? Thanks.

Errors could also come from not checking on perforations, or wishful thinking. A clear and repeated example is the confusion between Saudi Arabia (Hejaz) #L1 and #10

I am also currently dealing with an odd experience. I received a stamp back in the mail with a letter stating I had mailed him the wrong stamp. He identified the stamp I mailed as a #137, but we BOT

better minds than mine. I think I have Guernsey #1, Jersey #1 and Isle of Man #2. AM I correct?
