Stamp Collecting is addictive and fun! Give a kid a quality album, hinges ,tongs, assortment of newer AND older stamps and most will collect for a lifetime.
one piece of that jenny sold almost a million US dollar and you have a block of FOUR. no wonder if you ask for 3 million US dollar for that..a bargain! I do have double denomination 11 cents only one existed with major dramatic variety and not a flipover.. pennyondime95
Thanks for your comment!
Amazing stamps!
Awsomwe collection…Enjoy..
Whats the best way to find the year of stamps.
I commend trying to get younger people into stamps. It is pretty much dead here in America. Go to stamp shows and it’s nothing but grayhairs (no offense intended). I’m 39 and I’m usually the youngest person there.
I do have to say, I learned so much about the world from collecting stamps. I knew what languages all the African countries spoke by age 12 just by collecting their stamps. If teachers knew better, they’d realize that it’s an easy way to get kids interested in the world.
I have been collecting stamp about 15 years.
