I’ve got three unused first class US postage stamps. Two of them are five years old (dated 2002); the third has no date, but I suspect it’s probably no older than ten years old. None of them has a value printed on its face. They’re the generic interim stamps that were issued when the postage rates went up, before the new value-marked stamps were ready.
Can someone tell me their purchase value so I know how much additional postage I have to add to use them? Thanks.

Dated 2002; vertical format rectangle; the image is an illustration of a close-up of the center of a wafting US flag; the image fills the frame such that the edges of the flag can not bee seen; there are three “pleats” of the waving flag visible; the blue star field is in the left corner; along the bottom edge it reads “USA First-Class” in black lettering.
