Valuation & Pricing Advice

These are “high value” definitives of King George VI — the 10s, £1 and 2/6 are more scarce than lower denominations.

Catalog values in specialized stamp catalogues (Stanley Gibbons, Scott, etc) would help refine the estimate.

As a rough ballpark (for mixed condition), you might value the lot in the range £60 to £150 or more depending on condition, gum, cancellations, and scarcity.

If some stamps are in very fine unused condition, individual values could be significantly higher.
