Price & Valuation:

Based on available catalogue and online information:

A surface-printed ½d Orange Vermilion (issue circa 1887) in mounted mint is listed at about £0.95 in a British catalogue.

As used stamps, especially in less than perfect condition, the value is modest — maybe a few £ each in the UK market.

Given the three stamps and their used condition with cancellations, I would estimate a realistic total valuation of £10 to £15 for the lot (assuming no rare plate/watermark variety).

If any of the stamps prove to be from a scarcer plate, shade or watermark the price could be higher — you might want to research the plate number and watermark.

Recommended listing price:
