All very common stamps. Except for the first one, maybe 1c or 2c each. First one maybe a quarter.
Thanks, I appreciate you letting me know the monetary value.
Hold on a minute here - The 2nd one from Canada, if it is fresh and new with the original gum on the back is worth a couple of bucks - Catalog value is $50 USD.
If the gum on the back has not been distubed in any way, then it has a catalog value of $150 USD.
If there is no gum, worth a few bucks but not more. Better than a few cents, though.
The Scott catalog number is 104b.
Sorry, looked used to me (still does, but that may be due to the overall appearance). Even if it is unused, I wouldn't give more than a dollar for it because of its appearance. However, there are probably collectors who would give more, I am sure. I hate to quash a novice collector's expectations, but I would rather give an honest appraisal now rather than build him up for a let down later.
That Canadian "Admiral," which pictures King George V in his admiral's uniform (he really did serve as a distinguished Royal Navy officer), looks to be stuck on a postcard, in which case it would be valued as a used (cancelled) stamp. However, because it wasn't cancelled it's neither truly mint or used, it would be ignored by most collectors. However again, it's nicely centred, and would look fine in an album, assuming the "toning" of the perforation teeth is just discoloured gum, which probably would wash off. Of course, if it's on an entire postcard, it would be pointless to soak it off.

Yes, it does look like there's a card backing at the top right corner there. Guess maybe a dollar or less.
Hello everyone,
I'm relatively new collecting and still have quite a bit of knowledge to gain. Having said that, We are participating in a fundraiser and I thought maybe something I had not identified could be worth a little money to help. If not, I tried. I humbly ask for any advise that would help me identify and or know the value of the stamps. Thanks so much!
