You lack of knowledge of philately is breathtaking. The variation in size of the design is due to whether printed on flat plate or rotary press. The best way to determine this is by comparison to known examples of stamps printed on the repective press. But the key feature after determining the press is to determine the perforation guage, which you do not mention at all! For example in the second stamp you describe there are two extremely common stamps that this is likely to be. The original (1923) stamp (scott 552) was flat press, perf 11x11; printed in the billions, worth essentially zero. A rotary press version (1926, scott 632) perf 11x10.5, is similarily common and worthless. For a number of reasons, beyond this post, a very small number of rotary press stamps were issued perf 11. These (scott 594 and 596) differ slightly in size, and go for thousands. The rarer (596) goes for over $100k, but only a dozen of so are known to exist, mostly precanceled “Kansas City, Mo”. If you have a perf 11 rotary press stamp (highly unlikely) then to sell it as such to anyone who is not a fool, it needs to be certified, which can cost as little as $25, well worh it if really 594 or 596, but a massive waste if actually 552. 99.999999% of perf 11 sheet stamps of this design are 552, so noone who knows anything will pay you more than a nickel for it. The situation with the first stamp is similar...
Hi, this is the most knowledgeable comment I have seen. My mother passed away and I found a large collection that my father had in storage. Do you know where I can go or a reputable source to know whether some may be worth anything? I'm at such a loss and not sure where to begin. Thank you so much for any advice.
some of the people selling bunk stamps on ebay make me laugh. but they are actually pretty clever.. they cant say they have been authenticated so instead they say something like "my great grandfather was a post master for 70 years and these were in his collection" to indirectly say they are authentic.. clever fuckers. i emailed one lady and told her I liked the scam she was pulling and if it had worked or not but she didnt message me back lol
it just keeps getting better and better lolol. her holding that little plastic ruler next to one of her stamps had me rolling lolol. it didnt even measure in mm
I have a few of these very old thick 11 knotches on side no green marking on the backs please tell me who I can go to that isn't going to rip me off they are also all stamped. Any info would be appreciated.thankyou
The bleed through is not a good thing. That means for sure your stamp is not one of the more valuable.All graded copies have Kansas city pre cancel on them, all are darker green.
The 1909 I saw for 10 thousand dollars and still bidding going on. The 1923 was sold a few years ago by Siegal Galleries for 190 thousand.That's a total of 200 Thousand. I'm selling them together for 150 thousand and my math says that's lower. Giving the buyer 25% off the going price. Thank you!
@@Dorisanne13Antique I have an envelope mailed 1910 with this same coloring and size stamp. It does have an "I C " cancellation on it from Excelsior Springs, Missouri . I actually have quite a few Franklin and Washingtons as well as some Washington 2 cent, I believe . Lots of very old post cards some with photos. I am not sure where to start. How do I know who to trust ect.
@@Dorisanne13Antique Dear Madam / I have the one on the right side ... so I would be so grateful for you if you lead me how to sell it ... of course you will get your share for your cooperation . Tks, for your prompt answer for this matter.

1-cent? In what year Sir?
Chances of having the real deal is next to impossible.
