All four stamps are varieties of the 1861 3¢ Washington issue (Scott #64 family / #65). Here's the breakdown using Swedish Tiger data and typical Siegel auction realizations:1. Top/Left (striped cancel, brighter tone)Scott #65 rose (standard/common shade). Not a true pink. Heavy striped cancel. Common used example.2. Bottom Left (large "AID" or similar fancy cancel)Scott #65 rose. Solid rose color. Nice fancy cancel adds appeal.3. Bottom Middle (circular "D" cancel)Scott #65 rose. Typical rose shade.4. Bottom Right (heavy patchy cancel)Scott #65 rose. Standard rose.Color Notes vs. Swedish Tiger:No clear #64b rose pink here (that shade is distinctly brighter/pinker with a different hue; #64b is scarcer). All match the common #65 rose range (includes orange-rose variations). The "pink" appearance in some is likely lighting/aging/toning rather than a true variety.Auction Value (Siegel Comps):Used #65 singles: $5–$30 each (plain cancels).With fancy cancels (like the striped/"AID"): $20–$100+ each.Group Estimate: $50–$200+ total retail/auction. Good for a cancel study lot; nothing rare, but solid for your collection or Featherznest sales.
