Information on this stamp collection

Hello,

I have came across this stamp collection,

Can anyone please give me any additional information regarding any of the stamps?
any values? dates? types?

all information is much appreciated

if anyone can see any stamp which has some value please do let me know.



thank you,

 

thanks i will keep you update on the sale

 

I collected stamps for a long time, a long time ago, but no expert.
At a punt. these are a mixture of Japanese, Chinese and possibly Russian [the bottom lot]. Date-wise, mid C20th. Value - those with the highest currency amount on them are usually the most desirable. A complete run of one series is better than a single. I don't think you'll get rich but ones like those with the portrait of Chairman Mao may be good. Overprints [where a stamp is printed over in another colour] are good. And condition is everything. Mint [unpostmarked] is the best.

 

Alittlebit thank you so much, so should i sell the entire lot? are is they some i should take out and sell separably?

 

You could take them all to a stamp dealer [or two] and see what he will offer you for them. If you don't have any handy, maybe you could ring and enquire or email photos and offer a sale if the price is right. They won't offer you a lot [if they offer anything] but it is a start. You mainly need solid identification as to country of origin and dates of issue. You could check eBay for the same or similar and see what is up that is similar and what people are asking for them. Again, eBay is conservative so you can add a bit. And you can check specialist stamp sites online for values. How to sell them? I would leave them in the lots they are in according to your photos [if this is the way you bought them, otherwise a dealer may be able to help sort them better] and put them on eBay with good photos, front and reverse, spread them out, and as detailed a listing as you can manage. Starting bid maybe two-thirds of whatever you find they are worth. Hope this makes sense. Let us know how you get on.

 

Take any pictures in good natural light with that plastic reflective covering removed.
There is a special circle in hell reserved for people who publish pictures with flash-burn.

 

i will scan them all, currently they are on ebay and if they don't sell i will begin to scan them and list them in sets with your help we can decide whats what if thats okay.

 

i split them up into two smaller sets and this sold for £27 total

 

That's a pretty fair result. And it's all experience

 

Thank you, exactly i am learning everyday.
