  • Though stamp collecting isn't as popular as it once was, some rare stamps are worth millions, and the stories behind rare specimens (such as the "Inverted Jenny") read like the stuff of mystery novels. Rita Braver looks into the fascinating stories behind some of the world's rarest stamps, and the sometimes equally exotic group of people who collect them. Originally broadcast January 18, 2015.

    stamps are fun in so many ways, finding scarce or rare items are a nice bonus and it happens! Absorbing history, getting a sense of the globe and even the technical production process, colors and etc. to determine varieties are a great adventure

    Can any one tell me what the first stamp os worth

    • @steveradell859
      @steveradell859 Před 3 lety

      the first stamp, @ 21 seconds in, a 2c Jackson confederate # 8 is $350 used very fine (this one is average, so about 1/3) $75 if mint, but this is on cover, single use value is $1500, but covers can have other special factors too

      I lost interest in collecting US stamps when they changed to self adhesive stamps. Bring back the old lick and stick stamps.
