Welcome to our weekly online stamp auction! We have 200+ lots ending every Sunday open for bidding from worldwide collections to US First Day Covers and some of everything in between.
Lots are available for viewing in our offices and please let us know if you need more photos, more information about a lot, or would like to submit bids directly to us by phone, email or mail.
All lots will sell ending on Sunday afternoon on a staggered basis (the time will count down to 0) and a late bid will extend the time for that lot. If you bid on an item in the last few minutes it will extend bidding on that lot by 1 minute to try and minimize last-second sniping and also balance against overly extending bidding too long.
Check out our other auctions currently open for bidding on our website www.evstamps.com and please do let us know if you have any questions. We have a full service bricks and mortar stamp store in Richmond, Virginia (5317A Lakeside Ave) so give us a call or email if you plan to be in the area and would like to stop by! 1 US Stamps #11, 147, 184 and 210 tied by fancy US Stamps #1054 Block of four on first day cover to Milwaukee, WI with Paterson, NJ Mar 19, 1956 CDS, Alexander Hamilton Cachet 2 US Stamps State Department, Annapolis, MD on 1845 US Stamps State Department, Annapolis, MD on 1845 folded cover to Chestertown, MD with blue Annapolis, MD Mar 4 CDS, rare markings, edge tears 3 US Banknotes #165, 184, 189 tied by Bulls Eye US Banknotes #165, 184, 189 tied by Bulls Eye duplex cancel on cover to Parkersburg, WV with Baltimore, MD Jan 1981, refolded and reduced on court house cover 4 US Stamps #300 tied to Baltimore, MD 1906 CDS, on US Stamps #300 tied to Baltimore, MD 1906 CDS, on Grand Army of the Republic envelope for Minks Badge Co, Manufactures of Badge, buttons, Flags, addressed to Grand Forks, ND 5 US Stamps #620 Blocks 1925-1926 postmarks, include US Stamps #620 Blocks 1925-1926 postmarks, includes #617 pair, two envelopes, one with First Flight Inaugurating Contract Air Mail 6 US Stamps #646 Block of 12 and strips on two US Stamps #646 Block of 12 and strips on two envelopes includes #C11 on Special Delivery envelope 7 US Stamps #785-794 blocks of 4 on first day covers US Stamps #785-794 blocks of 4 on first day covers to Portland, OR with May 26, 1937 CDS 8 US Stamps #1909a strip of 3 on first day cover US Stamps #1909a strip of 3 on first day cover with Kennedy Space Center Aug 12, 1983 CDS and cachet by Colorado Silk, unaddressed 9 US Stamps #773 block of 4 on first day cover to US Stamps #773 block of 4 on first day cover to St Louis, MO with San Diego, CA Pacific Int Exposition Sta May 29, 1935 CDS and Nehi Inc Advertising cover 10 US Stamps #65 tied to Baltimore, MD 1865 double ci US Stamps #65 tied to Baltimore, MD 1865 double circle postmark and target cancel, on narrow purple envelope, edge faults, with enclosure, Civil War related 11 US Stampless Covers collection of 17 covers US Stampless Covers collection of 17 covers, mostly blue CDS with matching "5" rate circle 12 US Stamps 1926//1955 Comic Illustration Return US Stamps 1926//1955 Comic Illustration Return Corner collection of 9 ebvelopes 13 US Stamps #630 on First day covers one with Plate US Stamps #630 on First day covers one with Plate Number #1874 strip of 4 on 2 cent Sesquicentennial postal stationery with Oct 22, 1926 exhibition CDS 14 US Stamps #704-715 Plate Blocks on first day cover US Stamps #704-715 Plate Blocks on first day covers with Washington, DC Jan 1, 1932 CDS 15 US Stamps #704-715 on twelve first day covers to US Stamps #704-715 on twelve first day covers to Los Angeles, CA with Washington DC Jan 1, 1932 CDS with different colored rubberstamps cachets 16 US Stamps #790-794 Block of four on first day US Stamps #790-794 Block of four on first day covers to Chicago IL, with Navy Heroes color cachets 17 US Stamps #C11 pair on first day cover to Fort US Stamps #C11 pair on first day cover to Fort Totten, NY with Washington DC Jul 25, 1928 CDS, duplex cancels 18 US Stamps #C24 on first day cover to Georgetown, D US Stamps #C24 on first day cover to Georgetown, DE with New York, NY May 16, 1939 CDS 19 US Stamps #1054 Block of four on first day cover t US Stamps #1054 Block of four on first day cover to Milwaukee, WI with Paterson, NJ Mar 19, 1956 CDS, Alexander Hamilton Cachet 20 US Stamps #C12//C31 on 9 first day covers to US Stamps #C12//C31 on 9 first day covers to foreign destinations, includes one plate block, some with cachets 21 US Stamps #134 Used Pair, scarce H-Grill CV $450 US Stamps #134 Used Pair, scarce H-Grill multiple, toned with some small perf faults CV $450 22 US Stamps Federal Duck Stamps Used collection on V US Stamps Federal Duck Stamps Used collection on Vario page, #RW4-RW10, RW 12, RW 14-RW16, RW18 -
