My top ten favorite stamps in my collection (number one will shock you :wolftear:)

By the way I'm using scans online of the ones I own because they're much higher quality than any photos I could take.

NUMBER TEN

Republique de Guinee bird stamps

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1740790207iUfUlkO4QEM6qw.webp https://i.rdrama.net/images/1740790207pEoVGm6EKU8_PQ.webp https://i.rdrama.net/images/1740790207vo0hAmTiTTo5DQ.webp

I have this whole set I like the fact that they're pretty large and diamond shaped

NUMBER NINE

republique Rwandise space stamps

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1740790811wqvHIytQ-0D_pA.webp https://i.rdrama.net/images/1740790811QyRXYmfJuaMVgg.webp https://i.rdrama.net/images/1740790811RrJNqszzAWz11w.webp https://i.rdrama.net/images/1740790811VN5Fw5ai01TOtA.webp https://i.rdrama.net/images/1740790811_degdrLFTQkY6A.webp

These ones look great, America has poor moon landing and space stamps compared to countries who didn't even participate.

NUMBER EIGHT

Syrian Arab Republic Roman arch of triumph stamp

https://i.rdrama.net/images/17407909446big_IalsRHmWw.webp

This one's pretty neat I like the fact that it's from a country that doesn't exist anymore

NUMBER SEVEN

Romania Fairytale designs

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1740790610Fq12QHhq38UfgA.webp https://i.rdrama.net/images/1740790610gPRqx7xnK9tEWg.webp https://i.rdrama.net/images/1740790610zlR9-uWRB_ukzw.webp https://i.rdrama.net/images/1740790610nFsEjDKBPVizaQ.webp

Pretty sure these are probably designs based off of fairytales, not sure what else they'd be based off of. Pretty interesting look.

NUMBER SIX

Hungarian Mask stamps

https://i.rdrama.net/images/174079038178OzK1Wpg0Q8qg.webp

These stamps from 1973 show different mask designs, I really like when stamps show cultural things from the country that they are from so definitely

one of my favorites for that reason.

NUMBER FIVE

100 years of Egyptian stamps

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1740790472qt55uvK3XmlsnQ.webp

I like the cultural artifacts that are depicted on this set of two stamps and I also like the arabic writing on them a lot as well.

NUMBER FOUR

Yemen conquest of Mars stamps

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1740790436hgYRegFD80Y8-w.webp

These stamps are from 1970 and depict a fantasy scenario with people traveling to colonize mars. The art on these stamps is beautiful and I like the scenario it depicts as well. Back then we definitely all thought that we were going to have flying cars and be living on the moon and mar by now.

NUMBER THREE

Liberia African tribal masks stamps

https://i.rdrama.net/images/17407903549zEEmj4MJbANnw.webp

I love this set. The art it depicts is so beautiful and the ones I have in my collection are in great condition as well. I especially like the Bamileke elephant mask the beads are so colourful and if you've ever seen one of these in person at an art museum you'll know just how complex and beautiful these masks are in person. I also like how large these stamps are it makes what they are depicting easy to see and display.

NUMBER TWO

Ras Al Khaimah cat stamps

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1740790297wreJ_lJ4nxqwaQ.webp https://i.rdrama.net/images/1740790297sDZsybsPoINJVg.webp

Just like with the last set of stamps I like how large these are they look great displayed in my binder. There is more than one Ras Al Khaimah cat stamps set but I'm just including both of them since I have both full sets. The ones I have are in great condition and have vibrant colours. I also like the fact that these stamps have arabic writing on them, I like collecting stamps from other countries and any stamps with arabic writing are my favorite because I think that the script is very beautiful.

NUMBER ONE

Romania Vulpes Vulpes stamp

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1740790265t_OitqoYZdZ1Ow.webp

I like red foxes a lot and this stamp is very beautiful. The colours are striking and the copy that I have in my collection seems to be in near mint condition.

You can get these for super cheap and if you feel like spending around two dollars you can even get one of the souvenir envelopes

I'm not a stamphead so those just look kind of normal and somewhat pretty to me. I would love to know your reasonings for not liking them.

Ones like the first just don't aesthetically appeal to me, don't like stamps with people or boring classical ships/landscapes, third one is completely postmarked over in my copy.

Reading the write up at Sotheby's for the British Guiana 1 cent magenta was really interesting to me, looked at them for a bit after that, read about all the inverted Jennys and what not. Was surprised how affordable a penny black could be, thought of buying one of those.

How do you choose which ones to add to your collection? I imagine there's an infinite amount you could choose from.

I usually go after the kinds of stuff that I like depicted on them. Space age stuff, animals, cultural artifacts. They're like beanie babies where most aren't even an investment now and you can get them for under the price on the stamp itself.
