Sterling Stamps Sale - 25A

Mail Bid / Internet / Live Internet - April 5, 2025

Sterling Stamps present a Singles, Sets, Collections Auction on Saturday, April 5th, 2025 at 10am EST, with pre-auction bidding ending Saturday morning at 6am (EST). Please note we go live online at 10am on both Stamp Auction Network and our website https://auctions.sterlingstamps.com. This auction offers many intact foreign, topical, and country collections, accumulations, literature, and supplies. We are still offering appealing start bids and a competitive buyer’s premium (15%) and never overcharge for shipping!

Here are some of the highlights:

  • Fractional currency, a nice selection of better US singles including 19th century, early 20th century pristine plate ablocks and booklets. Note the never-folded reply postal card collection, groups of revenue material, proofs and essays, and much more.
  • British singles, sets, and many country collections highlight the foreign section with several key items. Enjoy the cover lots and ephemera section, and by the way, at the end of the auction, there may be some philatelic literature that may help your library.
Live bidding, (without audio), is available on Stamp Auction Network and our website, https://auctions.sterlingstamps.com beginning at 10am ET. This allows you to bid in real-time against the floor, phone and other internet bidders.

Phone bidders please make arrangements well before auction day.
