During the Great Depression, food stamps, or similar assistance programs, were not in place as we know them today. Instead, the U.S. government initiated various relief programs to provide food and aid to struggling families. While these programs aimed to alleviate hunger, the value of any coupons or stamps issued was often limited to specific goods and did not hold monetary value outside of that context. Therefore, they were essential for survival but not "worth" money in a traditional sense.
You are lucky to have them!!!! I heard they are worth up to $10000 dollars each! Cash them in right now!

Although there are rare stamps, in general WWII food ration stamps in a book of stamps (with some missing) are worth $2 to $5. An absolutely new book of stamps (unsigned) might be worth $10 or more. A book of stamps signed by someone famous would, of course, be worth even more. Loose stamps (not in a book) are generally worthless - a few pennies, if that.
Cancellation refers to the postal markings printed on stamps after they are mailed. Stamps with these marks on them are known as "cancelled" or "used" stamps. Yes, they are worth something to collectors, but their value varies widely, from almost nothing ( say 5 cents per hundred) to thousands of dollars.That depends a great deal on the stamp. In general, stamps on cover are worth more than those off of the cover. To determine value, you would have to consult a catalog or dealer.
They are worth 2 cents.

Stamps are always and forever worth the denomination printed on the stamp. If you need a one-cent stamp to complete postage, and you have a one-cent stamp from 1933 - it is perfectly legal. As to what individual stamps are worth to stamp collectors - that is a completely different question.
I have 4 volumes of coins of all nations, with stamps that we purchased some 15-20 years ago. What is their worth.
Well, dry ink is what is used to cancel stamps. Washing cancellations off stamps can be illegal based on Federal law or it could be fraud if intended to make the stamp worth more money. Stamps and the inks used to print and cancel them are designed to prevent this from happening.
