Atleast 23,124 stamps counted by hand are found within the entire collection. With atleast 18,000+ of those stamps being from around the world and the rest from the United States. All organized by scotts number order for the U.S. in stock albums from 246-3766 with stamps older and newer then what is organized. Or in the case of the World Wide stamps are in alphabetical order by country. The focus of the collection was to have one stamp from every government to ever produce their own stamps. Going through the Scotts Catalog there is atleast 673 different countries in the collection listed within Scott's. All the countries found in the collection have been highlighted on a 27 page typed list of each government.
Value of the collection by Scotts Catalog value is worth no less then $4,624.80 and that is mearly going by the average min. value which averages $0.20 a stamp. Now there are high dollar stamps from places like Hamburg and other German States stamps, however I have not gone through and tried to total up all their values. Even if each stamp in the collection was only worth $0.05 then the collection is still worth no less then $1,156.20. In the albums alone (never use hinges) there's atleast $300+.
I do accept PayPal but would also take a check how ever I will not ship the item if paid by check until the check has gone through the bank and been fully cleared. If local (Newport News, Virginia) then i would actually take $1,000 cash, but only if it was cash and made in person. Im asking $1,080 for the entire collection and that is including shipping which I will try but cannot promise will be U.S.P.S priority.
