Follow-up to my question on postage stamps: are cancelled stamps totally worthless?

1 Answer

Answer :

Certain stamps with a “limited” cancellation maybe worth more especially if they are on the original envelope. Also Valentine day (or other dates) cancellation like from Loving, NM or these maybe worth more. There is no “all cancelled stamps or old stamps are worthless” (price of postage) Also stamps on full sheets from 40 years or more years ago may bring a higher price then each individual added together for the number of stamps on the sheet. There are books and magazine for tips and price guidance. Some are available at the library.
