This is a lot of unused sheets of Germany #510 (Scotts) stamps as shown. The stamps are unused with perfect gum, they just need to be flattened out or broken into singles or blocks or whatever you like. The sheets are not perfect, there is at least some damage to each one, most all of the damage is to the outer edges. Most sheets have approximately 95 perfect stamps (except for the curling). The sheets are also numbered on the left edge, these are all in succession with some missing in between. The actual stamp count is as follows...Unused stamps with perfect face and gum - 2609 and stamps with either damaged gum or damaged face (I dont expect these could still be used as postage but if they could then these ones would be suitable for postage), postage worthy - 231 for a total of 2840 stamps. The sheet numbers go from 68563 through 68600 (again there are sheet numbers missing in between these numbers). 5 of the sheet numbers are partial or not complete but again all sheets have edge damage anyway. You can see the type of edge damage on the sheets in the first picture and there are small areas of edging missing here or there also. One other thing is that although the sheets are all intact there is an average of about 5-7 stamps per sheet that are not perfect. From the time I took these pictures (about a week ago) they have been under a bit of weight (not enough to damage anything) to help start any process of flattening. Not all of the sheets are without some perf separations but they are minimal. With the damage to some of the edging you might be best off just settling for nice large blocks (again blocks in the 80 - 90 area would be very attainable for most of the sheets. There are many smaller blocks and strips to go along with the sheets. The damaged stamps are separated from the good ones, I went through everything and discarded anything too bad (not much). Again the gum is very shiny and sound on the good ones. No stamps or sheets are stuck together. By the way, if my addition was correct, these stamps have a face value of about $120. Let me know if you have any questions. I have many other stamps up for auction now. Thanks for looking.
