Customer Reviews

Scott is the Bible of postage stamp apraising!

The Scott stamp catalogs are the bible of postage stamp apraising. No other publication brings together such a wealth of virtually universal stamp knowledge and pricing. While the prices that Scott uses may not especially match current market they are fairly consistant and most dealers base their prices on a flat percentage of Scott therefore making it a good reference point.

Indispensible Resource

This is an indispensible resource for beginning through advanced FDC collectors. There are values listed for all Scott numbers for FDC or EKU (earliest known use) covers. For modern issues, valuations are provided for singles, blocks, plate blocks, and FDC ceremony programs. Complete coverage is also provided for back-of-the-book issues, postal stationery, plate number coils, presidential inauguration and related covers, and World War II patriotic covers. A cachet calculator helps in determining values for individual cachetmakers. Many first cachets are illustrated. My only suggestion for future editions would be to include more illustrations of cachets and fewer illustrations of stamps, which are readily available through other sources.

Very Informative and Easy to Use

This guide is a very useful resource when wanting to find the values of international stamps. Every country within the specified letter category is covered along with all the stamps. I have found the values of the stamps in the guide are very accurate. If you're wanting to find the value of any stamps you have, this guide would be very helpful.
