Hi, Nicholas. You are right. There is nothing special among your grandma's stamps. |

Hey they are grandmothers so they are special. However they are pretty common from what I see they are worth a dollar or two.
However welcome and you have a start to getting into collecting stamps. |

Welcome to the Stamp Community, Nicholas!  We could help you get your Grandmother's stamps mounted in an album. |

Welcome to you and your grandmother. My grandmother help get me started in collecting and her mother also collected. Are you or her wishing to continue collecting. Every collection is unique and only needs to be valued by the collector. Most collect for the joy of it and not as an investment. |

I inherited my Mother's stamp collection and added on to it , I even replaced a couple of creased or lightly damaged stamps with better ones but when I look back I wish I would have left them alone just for sentimental purposes , the one thing I wish was that I had children of my own so I could leave them my collection , stamp collecting can be a legacy. I hope you hold onto the stamps Nicholas. |
