Yoo... brought more stamps.
£12 for a secondhand album with 16 pages (most of which full)... and a pile of stamps which has a fair few I'm very interested in adding to one of my existing collections.
(Screenshorts of the album is on the left. Pile of stamps on the right.)
The pile has a stamp from a series from Nazi Germany that I am mid way through collecting and a few UK derivatives of series from the 70s.

Any postage stamp collectors in Michigan out there. I have two boxes full of stamps that my father collected over the years. Some are in albums. Many loose in envelopes. People traveled and sent him stamps from all over! I need to find them a home with a collector that will enjoy going through them.

Here's one for my #Philately / #StampCollecting friends! My good friend Jack sent me a postcard from his travels, and on it, he included this interesting triangle stamp. As he noted to me, "I wanted to send you one of these new triangle postage stamps. It's the first time USPS have issued a triangle stamp in 30 years!".
In fact, this is even cooler than that - it's not just one stamp, there is a set of four which fit together neatly in a square: https://www.stampworld.com/stamps/United-States/Postage-stamps/g6576//
And searching a bit further, this is a "Global postcrossing forever" stamp, which means it is an international postcard rate and you can use one of these stamps to send a postcard anywhere in the world. There's a whole group about these: https://www.postcrossing.com/blog/2026/03/31/a-new-postcrossing-stamp-from-the-usa
And fittingly, this postcard with the motorbike postie stamp WAS delivered to me by my postman, on his bike (They used to ride motorbikes, but these days, they're on an e-Bike).
Thanks Jack!

Like BROOO who the fuck is pricing this shit?!
"Interesting" well yeah but not £30s interesting my gawd... crap is not worth £3 XD.
Here my collection of this series.
*edit: tbh tho it is a slightly different colour of red compared to two I already have tho.
There are meant yo be a bit over 200 different stamps in the collection but they are mostly just colour and watermark differences.

Why do people find a single stamp research it and then expect they can sell it for this much?!?!
The thing even has a corner clipped off :welp: :welp:
Honestly what a dumbass. He has another stamp posting that is a more recent stamp going for £15 of which I have atleast 3 of :KEKW:

Big ol' post of 3 stamps I brought as part of a lot a stamps from Belgium if anyone wanted to read about it and didn't want to go through all the posts I made.
-
2/4
So I think Belgium during ww2 was only partially occupied during ww2. I definitely need to look into ww2 more.
There are Nazi occupation stamps and actual beigium government stamps of that time.
The first stamp with the "SS" symbol on it is from the Nazi occupation and the second pic show other stamps from Belgium during the same year which just look like normal stamps of that country and era.

Brought more stamps!!!
I hate postage. Because the 5 lots of stamps (from the same seller) cost just over £8 but the postage and the new ""buyer protection"" (which just sounds like BS) bumps it up to like £14.
To deliver an envelope of stamps to my door is £4 (wtf!?!)
ONE of the lots I got were these dinos!!
Will do a blog post or post the cool stamps I actually wanted from the lots in the replies.

Happy 100th anniversary of birth to the late Queen Elizabeth II. Her Majesty would have been 100 today.
In honour of the occasion, here are four images, three gold-coloured (not actual gold) coins, and some art:
1) The 1st portrait by Mary Gillick, from an Australian pre-decimal penny: https://coinofnote.com/1963-australian-penny-keyring/
2) The Arnold Machin portrait on the first circulating pound coin: https://coinofnote.com/1979-isle-of-man-pound/
3) Jody Clark portrait with memorial dates, on 2023 Sydney Opera House 50c: https://coinofnote.com/2023-sydney-opera-house-50th-anniversary/
4) Two composite images together - left: A picture I made, of coins with each of the portraits overlaid on a larger image of a penny with the Mary Gillick portrait. Right: A picture I bought of the Queen's portrait made up of stamps of her image.

I'm going to see my son Lennon's band #stampcollecting play tonight in #Kenton #NorthPortUnited at #TheOffbeat #allages club.
This used to be the strip club #DancingBare until about a year ago. #thekidsareallright

This is probably the best stamp, in terms of artwork.
*not a stwmp I own.

In other news, I’ve been working on paring down my collection. Not in a “no longer interested” way, but in a “I’m committing to specialization and letting go of stuff I hoarded for little reason” way. I’ve contacted a friend who is a dealer - boxes and boxes of stuff ready to go. The good news is I will now have plenty more room to really begin laying out my real collecting areas in earnest.

An evening of mostly sorting out #stamps into countries.
I got interested in #stampcollecting over christmas and I found a box of over 3000 (feels way more) for £14 and I am still going through it.
I sorted out my old Nigerian stamps and have decided to have make a album dedicated to British colonies. It will aim to have stamps from when it was became a British colony to when it gained independence.
If anyone wants to be a stamp penpal pwease dm me. Needa find stamp frens ;-;

Went through a big bag of stamps today. All are from Malaysia, and Malaya (which I still am not 100% sure are -now- independent countries) and Singapore (some of which occassionally say Malaysia Singapore on, and confuse me.)
Oh and Malta... so many Malta ones.
So many doubles but not a single full set >.<
I want to do some ✨️arty shit✨️ with the ones that I have loads of. Stick em' to something and make idk ✨️art deco✨️

One of (the four) #stamp albums I got from my grandma. She brought ages ago second-hand. It's got some cool penny reds that I need to research (same century as penny blacks, but not really worth anywhere near).
1980s stamp expo first issues. And first day issues of the QEII's mother's 80th birthday.
Also has a complete set of 1981 christmas stamps drawn by school kids... apart from that nothing much.

Dang thought I had all the regular sized machin #stamps from 1967-69 but I realised there is a 1'9 and a different colour 8d... who tf had an idea to just change the colour for no reason lol.
Luckily I have the rarer turquoise 8d stamp tho.... can't be that hard to find the common red one right??
-
My grandma gave me a #stamp collection that she told me a few weeks ago I could have. I only expected a few small bags of stamps and an album or two.
But there was loads!!!
4 albums and a huge bag of stamps!!
One was started by my grandma and is dated by her in 1967 when she was 17.
-
Who tf had the idea of doing this?
A French stamp overprinted for use in Syria and then overprinted again to indicate that it is for air mail use.
Really cool but messy af. Without a cancellation mark on it too.
*not my stamp.
-
How cool!!
King Faisal I of the Syrian Arab Kingdom ruled for 4 months before being overthrown by the French and English. Before he was dethroned a single series of stamps were printed for the kingdom. The series consisted of 9 stamps which were subsequently overprinted in French.
The King's coronation was in March 1920 and the stamp has the year included on the stamp.. unfortunately on mine the cancellation mark covers it.
