{| |- | The first step is to try and identify the country the stamp was issued in. There are some 'stamp identifer' sites on the web that can provide clues. Consult a stamp catalog such as Scott's, which include pictures and descriptions of all the stamps. It also provides details on identification as well as a description on how stamps are rated and graded. |}

Depends on the definition of Duck stamps.If you are referring to the stamps typically bought to be affixed to a hunting license to allow one to hunt ducks, no, they are not legal for postage.If you are referring to the US Postage Stamps that have pictures of ducks on them, yes, they can still be used for their face value toward the cost of postage.
There were no postage stamps from 1777. They were first used in 1840. You must be referring to stamps commemorating something that happened in 1777. You will have to identify them in a catalog to determine the value.
Yes, every country uses postage stamps.
US postage stamps do not expire -- they are always worth face value as postage.
The US has issued many 5 cents stamps. I believe the most recent pictures a canoe. It was the postage rate from 1963 until 1967.
There is only one Forever Stamp, it pictures the US Liberty Bell and says First Class Postage. It is good only for the first ounce of a letter, anything more in weight requires additional postage. There are many other non-denominated stamps that may say First Class Postage, but they are not Forever Stamps, they were created for a specific rate. These stamps are still valid for that amount of postage, but they must be supplemented to make the full rate necessary.
No, they did not exist then. Great Britain introduced the first postage stamps in 1840.
