QUALITY: Stamp quality depends on grading, and grading is the most subjective area in stamp collecting. Generally, I adhere to the standards for stamp quality as listed in the Scott Postage Stamp Catalog. There are, of course, many other factors affecting stamps, including tears, stains, paper thins, blunted or missing perforations, disturbed gum, regummed, no gums, toned gums, scuffs, fading, and oxidation.
Stamp Grading,
as I apply to centering of design on stamp:

  • Superb (better than the best! Worthy of extra attention! Perfect in all respects. Commands a premium above XF.)
  • ExtraFine (The Best! A comfortable grade to buy stamps in! Near perfect Centering of the design! Expect a premium above VF-XF.)
  • VeryFine-ExtraFine (Slightly off-centered, but still in the Extra-Fine range! Good range to buy in! Sometimes a premium above VF.)
  • VeryFine (The mid-point range for stamp grades. Off-Center, but clear of the design on four sides! This is the grade currently used by Scott Catalog for listed prices. Good grade to buy in.)
  • Fine-VeryFine (Off-center. design usually close on one side or slightly touching perforations. Budget grade. Usually a discounted grade.)
  • Fine (Design close to perforations on two or more sides. Budget grade. Discounted.)
  • VeryGood or Average (Design cuts into perforations on more than one side. Budget grade. Discounted.)
  • VeryGood-Fine (Design cuts into perforations on one or more sides. Budget grade. Discounted.)
  • VeryGood-VeryFine (Design cuts into only one side. Three sides clear. Budget grade. Discounted.)

AboutMe: I am the founder of Target Auctions which I started back in 1979 in the Greater Kansas City area. My first stamp auction was a huge success, and I have been going strong ever since. My active and energetic team is ready to serve collecting needs 24/7/365. I am a full-time stamp dealer member of the American Philatelic Society. I have attended hundreds of stamp shows here in the Midwest and have made many friends. My company has sold stamps on approval and by a published catalog. I have advertised in most leading stamp newspapers such as Global, Stamp Collector, Meekel's Weekly, Stamps, and the APS Journal. I have been a continuous Linn's advertiser since 1988. I went live on the Internet in 1996. My association with stamps dates back to the 1950s. I would be happy to have you as a customer to add to our family of stamp collectors! Email me with your visit and interests! If I can answer any questions feel free to Email me personally. James C. Young, president, Target Auctions.
