The crowing rooster weather vane was sold for 1 cent.
It is still quite common
If you want to buy just one it will probably cost you from 10 to 25 cents at a stamp store .
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- say 65% face if mint and
1/10 cent if used.
It is the kind of stamp I use on letters if unused or give to kids if used.
