This stamp is getting old enough that I would hesitate to use it as postage-- a collector might pay 10 cents for it. Otherwise, your stamp has negligible value (less than 25 cents retail), but please do not throw it away! Keep it in your stamp collection for your children or for yourself when you have more time.
If you have more than one, you may be able to trade it for stamps of similar value and since it is getting older, you may be able to get 2 or 3 more recent commemoratives for it. Or give it to a collector friend. Collectors always appreciate the thought even if they do not need the stamp.
