Hi All, Just assuming there was many of those made and is it valuable at all or not exactly?!

I had 3 people stop at my table this weekend trying to sell these by the album. I will tell you what I told them. Such manufactured items have virtually no philatelic merit and no philatelic value. They were created for and marketed to the general public who didn’t know any better. When I encounter them in a lot of covers I simply toss them.
The beginner collector tables had a box of similar for free and the box was as full at show closing as it was opening. The only suggestion I have heard was to put them in the hands of a history teacher as a teaching aid.

The only people who want them are the people who focus on a set stamp. In your case if they were an Edison topical collector. Or with your set someone who wanted the real stamp because they did use decent mint stamps next to the gold ones. So 10 cents on a good day.
