What is a 4 cent US 1866 steam carriage stamp worth?

Scott Number 2451 Note that this stamp is not from 1866, it is the date the steam carriage was created. Minimal value for this stamp indicates that the cost is in packaging and tracking and not the stamp itself. A dealer isn't going to be interested in purchasing a single copy. You would be better to use it for postage rather than trying to sell it. Or trade with another collector!
