    Unfortunately the true value is only what someone will pay you for it. If it appraises for $25 million but you can’t find a buyer, then unfortunately it just isn’t worth that much (not at this time, anyway). It is sad to know something’s appraised value and then have to decide what you might settle for (or hold out and hope to find a buyer).

      Alan Holyoake, a very wealthy businessman, spent millions assembling one of the finest collections ever seen. He only took 9 years to do it.
      He entered it in the 2010 London exhibition and won top prize for his exhibition of 1d Blacks and 2d Blues. It included no less than 5 1d Black 1st Day Covers.
      I believe he then sold some or even most of his collection as he had achieved what he wanted to.

      He sell the hole colection but not in one Auction. I think the buyout will go for 3 or 4 times. The cplt colection is to expensive and so IT could be that a buyer had at time not enough money to buy more Stamps. But He will make his money! Sometimes the Offiziell Post Office buy some stamps bc they had not this stamps in their own colection and that is Canadian Posthistory.
