    Is there a site where you can find out howmany stamps are printed?

    Like when i have number 321 from Scotts catalogue, how can i find out howmuch where printed from that stamp?

    It should say in right in the catalog in millions. I really have to doubt you (or anyone) having a #321. $450,000.00 worth of stamp right there. Pic please?

    my scott catalogue doesn't say. my us postal guide to stamps only says on commems, not on defins.

    My 2009 Scott Specialized Catalog of US Stamps and Covers gives the total printed of each stamp (for most stamps anyway).

    I love mine, I bought a used one on ebay for about $20. It has pretty much every kind of stamp the US has printed. I have worn mine out.....lol

    I use the PDF version that is marked 2009 but recently came realize that the last PDF Scott's was in 2007 so it's a pirated version sadly but nothing much, if at all has changed so it's fine.

    My PDF version from 2009 goes all the way to 2008 issue, where as my old 2007 only goes to 2006 i could not see pirates adding all that extra data?

    i picked mine up off ebay seems genuine enough :)

    Pick up a used copy on ebay like I did. Get a 2010 or 2011, they are cheaper that way... lol
