Otherwise, how to explain the worst from one site to another statement that the most expensive brand in the world is included with the price of 2 million dollars! With all due respect to the first postage stamp, its price has never reached such heights and even the best copies are almost a hundred times cheaper.

Or what is the statement standing that the cost of "Holy Grail" comes to 30 million dollars!

Finally, it is unlikely that anyone knew that the Blue Gymnast's unspecified postage stamp, it turns out, it is sold at 13.8 million rubles.

All these fantasies have come to the compilation of a small review of the most expensive postage stamps of the world, in which we will try to maximize real auction prices.

It should be immediately accounted for that the prices indicated in the ranking do not reflect the actual value of rarities, since since the sales, on which these prices have developed, sometimes passed quite considerable time for which the price of brands undoubtedly increased.

For example, British Guiana was sold for $ 935,000 back in 1980 on how much this rarity It can cost today, after 32 years, you can only guess. For comparison, a yellow three-ring, sold in 1984 for 500 thousand, is now estimated at 2.3 million dollars, that is, almost ingestion more. The simplest extrapolation allows us to raise the price of British Guiana to $ 5,000,000 (UPD: As the June bidding was shown to Sotheby, even this estimate was understated).

It goes without saying that it is nothing more than our speculation. Therefore, we will not guess and stop at the prices (albeit the dops), which were formed as a result of real transactions with rare stamps.

So, the 10 most expensive postage stamps of the world ...
________

1. British Guiana - 9.48 million dollars.

The philatelectric rarity, which is sometimes called the "princess of philateli", is an octagonal postage of British Guiana (currently - Guyana) 1856. Denomination of 1 cent.

it postage Stamp Without perforation, printed by black paint on red paper, with the image of the three-machet schooner in the center. The rarity has a quenching of the mail stamp and his own signature of the email officer E.Ouit.

The brand was released as part of a series of 3 brands due to the delay of the circulation ordered in the UK. The only known "", carved in an octagonal form, was found in 1873. As a result of several transactions, it fell for 150 pounds sterling to the famous Collector Philip Von Ferrari, after which he received fame.

In 1980 (that is, more than 30 years ago) a rarity was sold by J.E. Dujpon for $ 935,000, and in June of the current 2014th year at the Sothesshis auction for him posted almost ten and a half million dollars, to bring it out of the ninth place in the ranking into indisputable leaders.

2. Holy Grail - $ 2.97 million.

And in 2005, it was exchanged for the Quarterblock "Inverted Jenny" worth $ 2.97 million, which at that time brought him to leaders among philatelectical rarities. By the way, this gave many reason to not consider the Grail to the most expensive postage stamp, because it is not about selling for money, but about the exchange. But in any case there was a deal with a certain price, so we will not go into these nuances.
________

The brand of the smallest nominal nominal was released in yellow. Even this "correct" color has several varieties from bright yellow to orange, the prices for which are diverted to dozens of times and pass over 30 thousand euros.

As you know, philatelists are passionate people. The acquisition of their expensive marks can be compared by expenses with the purchase of an apartment, a country house or a sports car. We present the most rare artifacts of the world of postage stamps.

"Tiflis Unica"

Or "Tiflis Mark". The first state Russian brand, released in 1857 for Tiflis City Mail (Tbilisi) and Codorori. Although some researchers refer it to the category of grades of the Zemskoy Mail. Its nominal is six kopecks: five of them constituted the postal shipment within the city, and one penny was added for the cost of manufacture. Before the First World War, only three preserved copies were known. According to the information of the Portal National Academy of Philatelee Russia, currently there are information about the five preserved copies of the Tiflis Mark. On October 5, 2008, at the Philateless Auction David Feldman in Geneva, one of the copies of the Tiflis Unique, who previously belonged to the philatelistist and the expert of Russian brands Zbignnev Mikulsky, was sold for more than $ 700,000.

"Cardline"

It is a souvenir sheet with four brands, published to the first All-Union Filatelicual Exhibition, held in Moscow in 1932. The block of brands received its name due to the fact that he was printed on very dense paper. "Cardboard" was sent to all invited to the opening of a philatelic exhibition along with invitation tickets.
25 of 525 copies were used to reward collectors who made a special contribution to the organization of the exhibition. It was these 25 blocks of the block that were equipped with additional named superfront: "the best striker of the All-Union Society of Filatelists." Currently, the only preserved block with an adhesion is known, which was awarded to the chairman of the Presidium of the Moscow Society of Filatelists E. M. Nurkas. After Nurkas was repressed, his "cardboard" will be the will of fate in the USA, where in 2008 was sold at the Cherrystone philatelicual auction for $ 776 250.
Instances without adhesive are estimated at $ 35,000. But the surviving "cards" are mostly in private collections, and their owners are not in a hurry to sell this rary.

"Black Penny"

First in the history of postage stamp. Its denomination is one penny, and the release dates back on May 6, 1840. The invention of "Black Penny" is attributed to Rowland Hill, who subsequently became an English-General-General. Until this day, a rather large number of this black brand has been preserved with the Queen Profile of Victoria, but they still belong to rare due to historical value. Haashed and also a shabby copy of the Black Penny can be purchased even for $ 200, the price for a clean brand comes to $ 30,000.

"Mauritius"

The brand was published on the island of Mauritius in 1847 and became rare due to an error made when printing. Instead of the inscription POST PAID (postal payment) on it, POST Office (post office) was published. The brands depicts Queen Victoria's profile, because at that time Mauritius was a British colony. Mauritius became the first brand of Great Britain, released outside the metropolis.
To date, six blue brands have been preserved with a denomination of two pence and 14 pink (in fact they have an orange tint) with a nominal one Pens. In 1993, Blue Mauritius was purchased by a consortium of Mauritius banks and enterprises for $ 1.15 million. Since then, none of these brands officially sold. Experts of the philatelicic market believe that if someone from collectors will expose "Mauritius" to auction, then the price of the brand will be several times higher than the value of 1993.

"Swedish Unicum"

Or "yellow three-ring". The first postal stamp of Sweden, published in 1855. It was rare thanks to the error in color, the reason for which is still in question.

With the exception of an erroneous sheet, the rest of the circulation came out in a blue-green version.
To date, it is known only about a dealer of raritet. Since its discovery in 1885, "Swedish Unicum" has repeatedly passed from the collection of one collector to another owner. On May 22, 2010, the auction was held in Switzerland, on which the "yellow three-ringing" was purchased by a group of persons who were encouraging about confidentiality. Lot cost exceeded $ 2.3 million.

The value of the brand is currently estimated at $ 2.8 million.
It is noteworthy that Farouk I itself possessed a huge collection of brands, which, after the public coup in Egypt in 1952 and the expulsion of the king was sold. Money went to the treasury of the Young Egyptian Republic.

Circus art is dedicated

Laying for many years, we decided to designate the date 1919, so the brand was released only to the 60th anniversary of the circus in 1979. After that, she came to the philatelists. At the auction in 2008, she left the hammer for 13 million 800 thousand dollars.

Mark "Flight of the World and Friendship in Denmark Sweden and Norway", 1964

The answer to the question of which brands are valued, every philatelist knows. Love for these pieces with corrugated edges in some collectors appears from childhood. At the same time, as its price increases, its price is growing, as a result, a banal passion can bring good income. There are specimens, the cost of which can be called the fabulous. A rare brand can be sold at the auction and the cost of the exhibit will pleasantly surprise the owner. After all, there are brands for which philatelists are willing to pay several million dollars.

Brand "Mauritius"

The most expensive in the world

Filatelists are difficult to surprise by an ordinary exhibit, but here is a rare and valuable brand - another matter. Such a piece of paper can cost a whole condition and certainly there is a collector who will be happy to dispel with the round sum.

Initially, the brands were invented in order to facilitate the work of mail and employees. By sticking to the envelope brand, an email employee thus confirmed that the service was paid. As a result, it was possible to avoid confusion and the recipient, coming to the mail, calmly took the letter or parcel.

But when small pieces of paper that pasted on envelopes began to be popular among the phylatelists, they began to produce entire series. As a rule, the series has encountered some event or person. Chose the outstanding identities of the presidents, monarchs and heroes.

But the greatest popularity was always used by instances printed with an error. Filatelie knows enough grades, the cost of which has grown due to the fact that in the production process was made of a typo or another error. Such exhibits will decorate any collection. The rarity and value is also due to the fact that the mistakes with errors went out limited edition.

1) As an example, one of the most expensive brands called "Mauritius" can be considered. The cost of this copy is about 20 million dollars, printed "Mauritius" on the island with the name Mauritius in 1847. In the process of printing, an oversight was allowed, according to which "Mauritius" is so appreciated by collectors: instead of Post PAID on the surface of the brand, POST Office was published. About 28 copies came to the error circulation, which are reliably known.

2) Filatelists are appreciated and another copy that does not have errors and is called the "Holy Grail". On the brand you can see the US President Franklin's profile. The cost of this exhibit is difficult to evaluate, experts suggest that it ranges from $ 30 million and higher. The reason for such an ambiguous assessment is that the brand is not for sale. There are only two copies of "Holy Grail", one of which is located in a private collection, and the other in the Public Library of New York.

3) In 1855, one of the most expensive postage stamps in the world was printed. It happened in Sweden. By mistake in the process of printing, paper was painted in yellow, instead of green. This is a mistake and led to the fact that Yellow Tresquelling appeared. In 1996, such a copy was put on the auction, the cost of the brand was 2.3 million dollars. The collector who acquired the "yellow trickling", wished to remain unknown, the transaction was officially implemented.

4) The next lot was last exhibited at auction in 1954. A block of 4 brands was estimated at $ 18,200. Today, the cost of such a block is about 30 million dollars. It's all about the error that was allowed when printing. The instance shows the airplane of Curtis Jenny, but in an inverted form. This mistake made Jenny unique and valuable.

5) At the time of the Russian Empire, there were also exhibits that should be paid attention to. One of these copies is the "Tiflis" brand in the amount of 3 pieces. All three copies were decorated with a collection of Jeweler and Faberge collector. But after his death, the brand was separated by private collections. It is impossible to look at them now.

6) In 1851, a significant event occurred in Hawaii - several brands called "Hawaiian missionaries" were printed. The peculiarity of missionaries was that they are made of bad paper and differ in fragility of just 16 copies, the cost of one of them is about 500,000 dollars.

"Mark Hawaiian Missionaries"

7) In 1988, one of the most rare and expensive brands in the history of the United States was expressed at the auction: "Benjamin Franklin Z Grill" rated at $ 15 million - record money at the time.

8) The next instance is not distinguished by rarity, but still considered valuable. The reason is that "Penny Black", or "Black Penny", is the first official brand, on the back of which glued. Today, buy "Black Penny" can be 2 million dollars.

9) The cost of the next copy is difficult to evaluate, the reason is that the brand is very rare. "British Guyana One CENT BLACK ON MAGENTA" was represented by philatelists and inhabitants in 1856. Printed brand on paper that has a low quality and purple color. The inscriptions are applied on paper with black ink.

10) Vintage stamps are great, but it is possible to help out money for modern exhibits, which for one reason or another have a high cost. A valuable copy - a brand depicting an actress Audrey Hepburn. The cost of such an instance is 94 million dollars.

The thing is that the paper depicts an actress with a cigarette in a large black hat. Mark was supposed to appear in 2001 in Germany. The series was dedicated to popular actors and actresses, but the son of Audrey Hepburn was not suitable, the fact that on Mark his mother was depicted with a cigarette and he recalled the right to publish. As a result, the whole circulation was seized and destroyed, there were only 30 copies, which were supposed to go to the museums of the whole world. But somehow 5 of them still fell into private hands. As a result, "Audrey Hepburn" is the most expensive brand of modernity.

Marks of the USSR

In the Soviet Union, there were also exhibits for which the philatelists of the whole world appealed. The cost of such brands today is capable of surprising and please.

1) Almost $ 14 million in 2008, the collector paid for the Blue Gymnastics, which was put on the auction. The features of this lot was that Mark did not go to the circulation due to disagreements. So the consensus was not achieved in what year to consider the year of the foundation of the circus, since the brand was produced to the anniversary. For this reason, the "blue gymnastics" was released only to the 60th anniversary of the circus, and not the 40th anniversary, as planned. On the brand indicated 1919. The same copies that did not get into the circulation were in the hands of collectors.

Brand "Blue Gymnast"

2) "Limonka" is now estimated at 15-20 thousand dollars. Mark with a par value of 15 kopecks suffered as a result of the fact that the printed machine was broken. The Goznak released the party on time, but did not pay attention to the fact that some copies are not pricked. As a result of such an error, the brand was used for postal shipments within the country.

3) In 1959, Nikita Khrushchev planned a visit to Sweden, and at this time there was a production of brands visited by the 250th anniversary of the battle under Poltava. As analysts decided that the brand could offend or insult the Swedes, it was sold only a few minutes. After the sale was stopped, the whole circulation was seized and destroyed. It is known about 40 copies that have reached our time the cost of each hesitates ranging from 10 to 20 thousand dollars.

4) "Flight and Friendship" costs nearly $ 30 million. Such a price is due to the rarity of the instance. According to political convictions, the grade circulation was also destroyed, so its cost is so high.

5) "Heroes of the USSR" today cost about 800 thousand dollars. The brand of this series with the image of the pilot S. A. Leuanievsky has several varieties. The whole thing is in the letter "F", which in the title of the city of San Francisco printed with an error. The "Heroes of the USSR" series printed on August 3, 1935. At the same time there are several copies of this series that are in demand for philatelists.

6) "Consular Filnik" costs a little cheaper, the brand was released in circulation in 60-75 copies, each cost is estimated at 65-66 thousand dollars.

7) Another representative of the Times of the USSR will delight any collector - mark with a rating of 50 kopecks with an inverted quenching. There is an instance of about 300 thousand dollars.

8) "Zakarpatskaya Ukraine" costs about 30 thousand dollars. The reason is that the copy has not fallen into the circulation. Mark was not released in 1956, the circulation was destroyed. A man and a woman in folk costumes were depicted on paper.

9) "ASPID-BIAN AIRGBLE" with a par value of 50 kopecks has a cost of 130 thousand dollars. But at the auction such a brand will still search for. The reason for the high cost is that an instance of the airship is not printed in brown, but blue.

10) The International Polar Year of 1932 of the release has cost of $ 37 € 375. The nominal postage stamp was 1 ruble and 50 kopecks. And there was an image of the map of the northern polar pool. The copy was intended for transportation of correspondence on the route Land Franz Joseph - Arkhangelsk. Among the philatelists is regarded as rarity.

11) Almost 87 thousand dollars was sold by the Mark "Aviation Series" of the USSR. She had one characteristic feature - the figure 5, which denoted the denomination, was wider and lower than that of other instances. Printed "Airmail" of 1923 on white or yellow paper. According to estimates of experts in the world, only about 50 copies.

12) "New Moscow architecture" is a series of 8 brands that do not have inscriptions and are confined to the All-Union Architects Congress in Moscow. The cost of instances is high due to the fact that in the process of printing the error was made. On paper, the inscription on the fields should be printed: "The first All-Union Congress of Architects. Moscow-1937. " But several forms appeared, which came out without this inscription, similar stamps and are valued by philatelists.
