Scott numbers for A Visit From St. Nick, Otters in Snow stamps

Another month has passed, and that means it’s time to reveal another batch of new Scott catalog numbers.

The editors of the Scott catalogs each month assign catalog numbers to new issues from the United States, United Nations and postal services from around the world.

The new Scott numbers detailed here are for recently issued U.S. stamps. New Scott numbers for worldwide stamps are given in the Scott New Listings Update in the expanded monthly issue of Forever Stamp Store’s Stamp News.

Included in this month’s listings are Scott numbers for the four nondenominated (58¢) A Visit From St. Nick Christmas stamps issued Oct. 7 in Santa Claus, Ind., and the quartet of nondenominated (58¢) Otters in Snow stamps issued Oct. 12 in Otter, Mont.

What do these Scott numbers signify? In short, each stamp’s listing in an upcoming edition of the 2023 Scott catalogs.

Having these numbers handy will allow you to easily locate these stamps in the Scott catalogs and learn about their production and values.

Now that you have some context, here are the new U.S. Scott numbers:
