What is the value of a one cent Washington stamp?

Answer 1

George Washington is one of the most common subjects on US stamps. It will take some detective work to narrow down the search. Use a catalog online or through your local library to identify the specific item. It will also provide an estimated value.

Answer 2

To many variables to determine. Consult a catalog, available online or at your local library. In most cases the value is going to be pretty low, as Washington is a common subject for definitive stamps. But there are some with some good values to them!

Answer 3

There were many 1cent green stamps during this time. Without a better identification, it would be hard to know what the value may be. There were so many different varieties that identification during this time frame is very difficult.

You need to fully identify the stamp, including knowing the catalog number, perforations, watermarks, condition and other factors. If you look it up in the catalog there is a price listed. That price is what a buyer should expect to pay a dealer for the stamp. If you are selling, you should consider yourself lucky if you get half that amount. Look for special markings. Stamps on envelopes can be worth more, particularly with picture cancellations, First Day Cancellations and special locations. Find a philatelist and ask for more information!

Answer 4

value is what someone is willing to pay.
