Hi

I am a new member interested to learn worth of collection acquired.

Hi Mel148 and welcome,
It takes some time to evaluate what your stamps are worth because many stamps have alot of variables, such as color, watermarks, secret marks etc. So stay a while, post some picks and there are plenty of stamp collectors out here that will help identify what you have. You may also want to check out some stamp catalogs from your local library to assist you. Gary

Hello Mel148, welcome to Stamp Community!

Photos or scans (flatbed scanner is best) show your stamps to the best advantage for showing and asking and selling here (after50 posts I think it is) or ebay or such like.

To collect is to wonder and ask questions and asking is contributing to a helpful community ere and receiving back.

If you are collecting in any sort of way you may wish to add that to your Profile or to the left hand upper button or link about What Members Collect.
