Explanation:

Shares can be issued at par and above the par value.  A stated value is an amount assigned to a corporation's stock for internal accounting purposes when the stock has no par value.  Like par value, stated value is nominal, typically between $0.01 and $1.00.

If no-par value stock does not have a stated value, the entire proceeds from the issuance of the stock become legal capital.
