Went looking for some more stamps that are UV and found this. 1998 Russian stamps. I’ve never seen anything this odd/interesting/(disturbing?) on a stamp UV or otherwise. Convince me that isn’t a skull wearing a crown, please lol submitted by /u/isc69696969 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Can someone explain how people are selling forever stamps below 'face'?

I'm 62. I remember as a kid, buying sheets of stamps, when first class was 10c, expecting them to appreciate. And then using several of them on a single envelope when I realized they didn't appreciate. And went to shows seeing people selling sheets below face. I've joked with my wife how I wish they had forever stamps when I was buying those sheets. But now, looking on ebay, I see people selling sheets of forever stamps at below 'face'. Like this: https://www.ebay.com/itm/395299716510 5 sheets, each with 20 stamps at 68c = $68. Even when they were new (49c?), that's $49. Would you think these ..read more

Why is there a white line at the left side of the main stamp?

So, a friend sent me this souvenir stamp sheet. I saw online that the main stamp (just beside the little round flag) has a white line in the picture as it is here. I don't know why. It seems a bit awkward to me. At first I thought it's a misprint (let's take a moment for sorrow) & then searched on Colnect. And I saw it is as it is. All of these has it. Can anyone clarify my doubt? submitted by /u/DibyanLonelyNibba [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Some questions I have about stamps for a story I’m writing

Hey all, I am a novelist and short story writer, and I am currently writing a story about an identity thief in the 1960s. I wanted to have the character send letters impersonating the people he’s killed, but use stamps and date stamps to make the letters look like they were sent from a different location. As an example, he’d send a letter from Nebraska but it would like like it was sent from Indiana. Here are some questions I have about the stamps, if anyone here knows any answers: Can you use an Indiana postage stamp in Nebraska without raising any questions? If so, then the only thing I’d ..read more
