Another month has passed, and that means it’s time to reveal another batch of new Scott catalog numbers.
The editors of the Scott catalogs each month assign catalog numbers to new issues from the United States, United Nations and postal services from around the world.
The new Scott numbers provided here are for recently issued U.S. stamps. New Scott numbers for worldwide stamps are given in the Scott New Listings Update in Scott Stamp Monthly.
Included in this month’s listings are Scott numbers for the nondenominated (60¢) Love stamps picturing a kitten and puppy, the 48¢ Sailboats stamps issued in panes of 20 and coil rolls of 100, the $9.65 Florida Everglades Priority Mail stamp, the $28.75 Great Smoky Mountains Priority Mail Express stamp and the nondenominated (63¢) Black Heritage stamp honoring author Ernest J. Gaines. Also Scott official are the imperforate varieties of the Love stamps from uncut press sheets without die cuts.
What do these Scott numbers signify? In short, each stamp’s listing in an upcoming edition of the 2024 Scott catalogs.
