Sold to USA. 5 stamps lot from Denmark, same HS code ?

Sold to USA. 5 stamps lot from Denmark, same HS code. On the custom form, can I enter the 5 lots as one with a total value of the 5 lots, or do I have to enter each lot separately?

@apmtrade  What I have been doing which may or may not be correct is grouping things.

I've always had on the customs form quantity of 1 (with the description "postage stamps").

So in this case it would be "Postage Stamps", Quantity 1 and COO Denmark.

So far I've never had a problem with grouping and calling each "group" quantity 1.

If there's multiple countries I group them by country, so far I haven't encountered enough different countries purchased to cause a problem. 

PS anything that is multiple countries like WW, Latin America, Birds on stamps etc, I call CA because I assembled them here.

I sometimes sell lots with a few different stamps (but all from the same country), I would sell it as a stamp collection using code 9704 or a collection of presentation packs/covers, etc.

If it's all the same item from the same country, I wouldn't worry about quantity, I always say collection when there's more than one item.

If all items in the package have the same CoO and HS code I would just describe them as a single line item on the customs form as "Lot of Postage Stamps" with a value corresponding to the sum of all 5 lots.

Customs doesn't care how many separate orders are contained in the package.
