The first George Washington one cent stamps were issued in 1908. In 1932 the US Post Office issued a series of stamps in honor of the 200th anniversary of Washington's birthday. They continued being used on postcards and letters throughout most of the 1950s.

I cannot really answer this question because there are too many designs, all issued at different times. There are several online sites you can go to to find out; google George Washington 1 cent stamp; use the 1st result...it works well. Compare the stamps to the pictures on the site.

I am not sure when this stamp was issued but I am very sure that it is worth a lot of money today because of how rare it is. There are not very many left in the world.
