what is the value of a July 4, 1959 United states postage stamp. I found some old stamps at a flea market inside of some romance books. What do i do with them?

Type of stamps found

  • Champion of liberty stamp, united states postage its a 4 cent stamp-Simon Bolivar issue
  • Champion of liberty stamp, united states postage its a 8 cent stamp-Simon Bolivar issue
  • Champion of liberty stamp, united states postage it a 8 cent stamp-Ernst Reuter issue

If they are in mint condition you can put enough of them to total 44 cents on an envelope and use them for postage. Most US stamps issued after 1940 are only worth face value. So many of them were issued and so many saved by collectors or misguided speculators that stamps dealers in most cases will not even pay face value for them. Just for fun I routinely buy stamps issued back to

to the 1940's and use them for postage....
