A roll of stamps is exactly what it sounds like. It is a strip of stamps, usually 50 to 100 stamps, could be as many as 500. They are 'coil' stamps, which means they have two straight edges and perforations between the stamps.
It will depend on the specific stamp issue. It could be minimal, worth 15 cents postage for each stamp. They may be 50 or 100 stamps to a sheet. There are some very early 15 cent stamps that could be worth many dollars each. Consult a good stamp catalog to identify the stamp and its value.
I believe the most valuable stamp is the 'Inverted Jenny' US 24C airmail, A 100 stamp sheet of these errors were released. single stamps hammer at close to $1 million USD at auction.
{| |- | Stamps are printed in sheets and then perforated and cut. A full sheet, usually 50 or 100 stamps will have perforations on all four sides. When the stamps are cut into long strips to be 'coiled' into rolls, they have straight sides on two opposide sides and perforations on the other two. |}
Answer:The Inverted Jenny error stamp is Scott Catalog # C3a. The error occurred in the printing process when a sheet of stamps was accidentally placed in the printing process in backwards. Of the 2.1 millions stamps of Scott Catalog # C3 only one sheet was ever found with this error. The sheet of stamps was purchased for $24 dollars in 1918 at the post office and shortly thereafter sold for $15,000. The person who purchased the sheet of stamps for $15,000, broke up the sheet and sold single stamps until they were all sold. Today a single stamp from this sheet is cataloging for the price of:$500,000.(Scott Specialized Catalog of US Stamps & Covers 2011, page 350)Note:The number of C3 stamps that were printed are listed on page 532 in the catalog. (2,134,888) that would be 21,348 sheets of 100 printed.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The inverted Jenny error, Scott Catalog #C3a, is probably the most famous error in American philately. Only one sheet of a 100 of these misprints were ever found, though there were at least 300 more printed.An inverted Jenny was sold at an auction in June 2005 for $525,000. A block of four inverted Jennys was also sold for $2.7 million in October 2005.

Scott number 1294 Nice one! These $1 stamps cost $5 each unused. You could probably sell the sheet for $150 to $200 if they are unused and in very good condition.
