How much should I charge for a Russian stamp?

Question by jazzgirl_777: How much should I charge for my 1968 Russian stamp?
Someone offered to buy a 1968 Russian stamp from me with Lenin on it, and I’d like to get an idea on what price I should ask him to pay for it. Thanks!

There were several Russian stamps issued in 1968 with Lenin on them. The ones I see have the Scott catalog numbers 3440, 3459, 3460, 3461, 3481, 3503, 3509, 3566. The catalog value for used copies of these are respectively: 20, 20, 20, 20, 50, 20, 20, and 30 cents, but no one would be likely to offer you as much as catalog value for any of them.
You can compare your stamp with the photos below of stamps for sale, but you should be aware that the catalog numbers shown there are from the Stanley Gibbons (SG) catalog which British collectors use.
