Re: [DX-CHAT] used stamps
I've got a small bag full of cancelled foreign stamps collected over the past 25 years and would like to send them to a good cause. Suggestions? N2ERN Ask around for your local stamp collector - they will often know folks who want them. One of the huge issues is that 'modern' used stamps are generally not worth that much. They are worth more on cover - aka the whole envelope. I used to give Dad my used ones, but he played with them more as 'something to do' than for any real value That said, every once in a while, there are rare odities. For instance, there was a fairly common US coil stamp done, oh 10-15 years ago, where the USPS decided to test on some stamps a different UV taggant. A bit back, they were dicovered, and at the time, there were less than a dozen known used copies still in existance. --- To unsubscribe or subscribe to this list.

Send them to Kappy, WA4WTG. He collects them. I send all my stamps to him.

Re: [DX-CHAT] used stamps
I have a local stamp collector who works with school kids interested in collecting, and she is always looking for contributions. Anything sent my way will be forwarded to her.She's a ham but she would prefer that I not mention her name or call. 73On 08/15/11, Harris Rubenn2...@arrl.net wrote:I've got a small bag full of cancelled foreign stamps collected over the past 25 years and would like to send them to a good cause.

RE: [DX-CHAT] used stamps
N2ERN, I remember hearing that some Children's Hospitals were interested in receiving used stamps for projects. I can't tell you off-hand the particular hospital but perhaps one near you? I'm certain there is a good cause out there looking for your kind donation.
