The listing, Old and VALUABLE Stamp from Sweden, from 1872 has ended.
Here's another very OLD stamp from Sweden-- it is Scott no. 24, from 1872. This is by FAR the most valuable stamp I have offered on Listia, so far. It is in used condition, with no faults that I can see other than some slight browning of the old paper-- still nice for such an old item. As I said, this is an expensive one, listing in Scott's for $35.00 catalogue value-- wow!
Please check out my other old stamps!
Here's the bigger scoop: My mom and stepdad both passed away over the past couple of years, and I've been going through some of their old stuff-- they were both dedicated "savers" of everything. In some ways, I guess they were borderline "hoarders." My stepdad collected stamps, and this is from his collection-- although it's more like a giant pile of messy album pages and envelopes.
I think people should have fun bidding on stuff-- that's what auctions are all about! So the starting bids for my stuff will always be is FIVE credits, and we go from there, no matter HOW valuable something might be.
