Do stamps expire?

No they don't expire the only exception is the old pound, shilling and pence (£sd) values which have no postal validity now. You can use decimal currency stamps of any age as long as the postage is correct for the class of mail you used.

Can you still use old unused stamps to mail letters even if they are about 4 plus years old or older - will the post office reject the letter and send it back to youdo?

Yes, you can use them. No, the post office will not reject them. But be careful. That doesn't mean that a stamp that was worth enough to mail a letter 5 years ago is still enough. Rates have gone up. Look at the stamp, see how much it's worth, and make sure you stick enough money on a letter to add up to today's rates. Worst part about old stamps: The glue may be shot. You may have to add a drop of glue to the back to make them stick.

In exllant condition 1863 Civil War Centennial Gettysburg 5 cent US postage stamp value?

This is a common US commemorative stamp.

If you want to buy just one it will probably cost you from 10 to 25 cents at a stamp store for a used one--

Unused, about the same.

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

1/2 cent if used.

It is the kind of stamp I use on letters if unused or give to kids if used.
