| Twelve-year old L. Vernon Vaughan discovered this rarity in1873 among letters in his family's attic. In 1980 it was auctioned to John Dupont for $935,000. Long reputed to be the rarest stamp in the world, a second copy, still to be authenticated, recently surfaced in Germany. (1856). |
| The British colony of Mauritius produced only 500 examples of each of its first two stamps. Fewer than 30 survive today. In 1993 a cover bearing both the 1d and 2d stamps sold for $3.8 million, the highest price ever paid for a stamp collecting item. (1847) |
| The first four stamps issued by Hawaii are called the "Missionaries" because they were frequently used by island missionaries to send letters back to the United States. The lowest denomination, the two-cent, is the rarest of the set. (1851) |
| The rarest of U.S. stamps, with only 2 known to exist, its "Z-grill" is a pattern of tiny squares pressed into the paper to allow the canceling ink to be absorbed, thus discouraging postage cheaters from washing it out. The use of grills was found to be impractical and was discontinued in the U.S. after 1871. (1867) |
example of a modern rarity is this printing error of the Canada St. Lawrence Seaway commemorative. About 62 stamps with inverted centers were released. (1959)
