Best Answer

There have been many different Ben Franklin one-cent stamps with many different values.

If yours is used, it probably is worth no than 20 cents, but there are some rare varieties with more value. It will also depend if it is still on cover or been soaked off.

Likewise for mint ones - the cheapest retails for 20 cents, but some sell for $1+.

Consult a catalog to identify the specific issue of the stamp and its condition. That will help you figure out if it has any value.
