Every scan stays in your history. Move the stamps worth keeping into an album.
Collection value
Stamp value scanner: see what your collection is worth
Every stamp you scan gets an estimated value range and a rarity level. StampSnap adds it all up, so you can see what an inherited album or a shoebox of covers might be worth before you sell, insure or pass it on. Your first three scans are free, so you can try it as a free stamp valuation app first.
Stamp valuation app
See a useful estimate alongside rarity and issue details. Condition and buyer demand still decide the price.
Rarity at a glance
Every result carries a rarity level, from common to very rare.
Paid vs. estimated
Log what you paid for a stamp and compare it with the current estimate.
Value history
Watch the total of your collection change as your albums fill up.
A useful estimate, not a professional appraisal
Stamp values are estimates for general reference. Actual value depends on condition, centering, cancellations, gum, authenticity, provenance and current collector demand. For rare or potentially valuable stamps, consult a qualified philatelic expert or appraiser.
