They should have been destroyed, but it is permissible to collect these interesting items as they are not obligations of the United States. Also, make note of the cancellation bars that are printed through the portraits. Gioris are known by their center portrait, either Jefferson or Washington, with the Washington examples being printed in 1976 in Geneva, NY. This was printed one side only; therefore, the back is blank.
