Yes. The Liberty Bell Forever stamps can be used at the current First Class rate forever... hence the name "Forever stamp". They are worth whatever the current First Class rate is. For example, the rate currently (Dec. 2010) is $0.44. The Forever stamps are worth that amount right now, even if they were purchased at a lower rate before the increase in May 2009. If the rate would happen to increase again, the Forever stamps would be valued at whatever the new rate would be, whether they are purchased before or after the increase.

Maybe, depending on where you are and when "last year" was. The US postal service began a few years ago issuing "forever" stamps that are first-class postage "forever" ... that is, they can be used to mail a first-class letter even if the cost of first-class postage goes up. These will say "forever" on them, and will not have a denomination other than that. They're priced at whatever the current first-class postage rate is. If a stamp does have a denomination on it, that's the value of the stamp. If that's insufficient for current postage rates, you will need to add stamps to make up the difference.
