20150620_155239.webpwe came across this only thing we know is its stamped Orig. papyrus and the rest of the stamp is faded. if anyone knows what the picture is about i think i could find it easier that way. does anyone know?
 

It's King Tut and his wife. Common tourist depiction.
Much of what is marked as genuine papyrus really isn't, and might be worth confirming if you go to sell it. Maybe someone here can explain the differences, but I can't.

I agree, only the original is original, anything marked original isn't.

Actually, original papyrus can mean original papyrus - because the only thing that means is that its made from the pith of a certain plant. (which some folks still do). It doesn't mean its old, or historic, or costly, or valuable. I agree that an expert is the way to go.

You should go to Egypt on vacation. You can buy these everywhere for about 50 dollars.:occasion14:
