Yes, a 4 cent Louisiana stamp can have value to collectors, especially if it is rare, in good condition, or part of a specific collection. Stamps can appreciate in value over time based on demand, historical significance, and condition. If you're considering selling or appraising it, consulting a philatelist or a stamp dealer could provide more insight into its worth.
Mint US stamps are worth their face value to use as postage, so use yours that way, if you need postage. The stamp is a rather strange denomination, so you might want to ask any collector friends if they like it. Otherwise, your stamp has negligible value ( less than 25 cent retail) , but please do not throw it away! Keep it in your stamp collection for your children or yourself when you have more time. If you have more than one, you may be able to trade it for stamps of similar value. . Or give it to a collector friend. Collectors always appreciate the thought even it they do not need the stamp. .
There is no US stamp like this and I do not know of any foreign stamps picturing Patrick Henry.There is a 1 dollar stamp with Patrick Henry on it. It is an example of a minimum catalog value stamp. Its catalog value is 2.50 cents if mint and 20 cents used.When most US stamps come out they are assigned a catalog value of 20 cents for used and about twice face for mint or 20 cents whichever is more. Most of the US stamps issued in the last 60 years are still at minimum catalog.The catalog value is a guide to what a dealer charges for this stamp in an individual custom order for it. Mos of this price is to pay the dealer for the labor in locating the stamp in his stocks, replacing it when it is sold, and making up the order. Most of these stamps are sold as part of a packet or collections or mixes of 100 or more stamps for 1 to 2 cents each if used ,and face or less for mint.After buying a number of such packets or mixes, a collector usually finds that certain stamps are missing and then he may place an order for just these particular stamps in order to complete his collection and pay close to catalog value for them.Dealers buy used minimum catalog stamps in large lots , collections or accumulations. They do not want to buy such stamps one at a time or in small lots. They pay less than 1/2 cent each for them. They get their mint stamps from the postal service at face while they are available and buy up accumulations of mint stamps for around 80% face . So, if you just have a few such stamps to sell, your only real hope is to find a collector who just happens to need that stamp for his collection. If the stamp is unused, you can use it for postage at its face value. I should add that if the stamp is defective in any way, it is worthless if used.

This is a common US regular issue If you want to buy just one it will probably cost you from 10 to 25 cents at a stamp store for a copy, mint or used. If you want to order it by mail, you would have to pay postage and handling in addition. Dealers get them as part of larger lots for almost nothing per stamp- 65% face and 1/4 cent if used. The money they would charge you for it is mostly for labor. I think it is a nice stamp and I would certainly keep a nice copy for my collection. If you more than one, maybe you can trade it for another similar stamp .
No
It will depend on the specific stamp. Washington is on more stamps than any other president. Some of them are very valuable, but most of them are low value. And of course it has to be in good condition and not damaged.
If they are US stamps, it will depend on a number of factors. In general to buy a mint one would cost you around a $1. Consult a stamp catalog for the country in question and identify the stamp. It will also assist you in finding the value.
The value of any stamp depends on several variables, one of which is the condition. Another is that it is worth whatever someone will pay for it. The 1952 Mount Rushmore National Memorial 3 cent stamp's value is listed by hobbizine.com as 20 cents for a used stamp and 60 cents for mint condition. The 1939 50th Anniversary of Statehood - Washington, Montana, North and South Dakota 3 cent stamp's value is listed by hobbizine.com as 20 cents for a used stamp and 90 cents for mint condition.

The 6-cent US Marquette Explorer stamp, issued in 1898, can have value to collectors, particularly if it is in good condition or has unique characteristics like rare cancellations or printing errors. Its value can vary based on demand, condition, and market trends, generally ranging from a few cents to several dollars. For an accurate assessment, it's best to consult a stamp catalogue or a professional dealer.
This is Scott number PS 11. Some people collect them. I would estimate its value at 30 cents if it is in good condition.
This stamp is Scott's number 1525. Catalog value for Very fine condition is 20 cents, mint or used. You can probably buy one for 10-15 cents.
It depends on the condition. Typically this stamp is worth the minimum value, about 15 cents, to cover the cost of cataloging and storage. A dealer is not likely to give you any money for one, it isn't worth the hassle and he can't make any money on it.
Four cents if you use it for postage. The value to a collector will depend on what stamp it is and what its condition is. You can consult a stamp catalog to find the information that will tell you if it has any value. Chances are if there is nothing special about it it is worth just a few cents.
There are lots of them. While most of them are not going to be of high value. However, the first US stamp was a 5 cent stamp and would cost you over $700. Consult a good catalog to determine the values of your stamps.
Yes. In the 'Scott Specialized Catalog of US Stamps' the oldest US stamps have a subcategory for cancellations. Special cancellations can increase the value of older stamps. 'Railroad' is one of those cancellations.Note: You reference a 20 Cent Special Delivery stamp. A 20 cent Special Delivery wasn't issued until 1925. A 'So. Rwy' may add a little value to the stamp, but I wouldn't expect much.
FDR appeared on a 3-center as part of a memorial set for him soon after he died. He died in 1945; the stamp appeared in 1945 or 1946. The same set had stamps of 1 cent, 2 cent, and 5 cent denominations, all with the same portrait, but different scenes related to his life . I am pretty sure that Theodore Roosevelt never was on a 3 cent stamp.
