Minimal value means that there is no real value to the stamp. You can purchase a copy for whatever the minimum cost a dealer has set, usually about 15 or 20 cents. That is to cover the cost of handling the stamp rather than the stamp having any real value of its own. Most dealers will not be bothered to buy these unless they are complete sets. Mint sheets are often sold at 80% of the face value.

What does minimal value mean in stamp collecting?

Minimal value means that the stamp is very common and does not have much value.

A dealer is very unlikely to care to buy a single copy of the stamp, the transactions costs would eliminate any possibility of profit on the resale.
