United States: Bargains: Stamps Scott #246-284  
These bargain-priced stamps are attractive, but may have hidden flaws. Some have no defects at all, but the price is lower simply because of the centering. Unlike some dealers who might not pay attention to and lower the price for such situations, I describe the stamps completely and I set prices accordingly. You can save a tremendous amount of money when you add such stamps to your collection. Each stamp is one of a kind, so please let me know if I may substitute a different example (that looks as good or better, for about the same cost) if the stamp you order has sold. If you have any doubts, all these stamps can be available for viewing on approval. Regardless, you may always return stamps if you are not completely satisfied. If you are seeking any other U.S. stamps of this quality and price level, just send along your want list -- I will be happy to send bargains on approval. Scott numbers have been used unless otherwise stated.

Scott #246 DARK ULTRAMARINE [1894 1c ultramarine Franklin, First Bureau Triangles, Unwatermarked] Used with Average centering, jumbo margins, and extremely light cancellation. This color is really quite unusual for this stamp; Scott mentions Dark Ultramarine, but it should have a much higher catalog value! Pretty example despite the centering.

Scott #247 MEDIUM BLUE [1894 1c blue Franklin, First Bureau Triangles, Unwatermarked] Mint, with heavy hinge and disturbed gum, with F-VF centering. Confirmed to not have a watermark. Most examples of this stamp are fairly Dark Blue; though there is a scarcer "Light" Blue. However, this example is a hybrid: The heavy/solid areas appear very dark, but the rest of the stamp color is fairly light. I attribute this not so much to the color of the ink, but the shallowness of the engraving of the thinner lines (lighter appearing areas). Thus this is color appearance is, in my opinion, a plate-making issue, not an ink issue. A very interesting example that is little known. (Scott 2024 $62.50 for Mint OG, Hinged.) This example is priced for the color situation, but priced as if it was without gum.

Scott #261 [1894 $1 black Perry, Type I, Unwatermarked] Used with VF centering, but with a thin. The cancellation is a little heavy as is typical on this stamp (typically used on parcels and registered mail where they were thoroughly canceled), but it is a very reasonable-looking example. I have confirmed that it does not have a watermark. (Scott 2024 $350.)
