Small Queens Completed

I started collecting mint (unused) stamps of Canada in January of this year (2024) and am happy to have made pretty good progress. As the year closes out, I completed the Small Queens with the final stamp arriving today after a month-long delay due to the Canada Post strike.

While I plan to acquire some big-ticket items in 2025, my immediate focus is in completing the Admiral, Arch Leaf, Pictorial series. The Scroll series is complete, just waiting on a 1¢ orange coil single to arrive. I'll put out another post when that stamp arrives.

VERY nice! The stamps present well, and the centering is excellent. Love it and can't wait to see more as you progress.

Well done. That is a nice looking set. Great colors and centering.

Wow ! They're really beautiful ! I like them a lot ! Are you going to collect the large queens too ?

rogdcam & ZebraMan: many thanks!

CaptainStamp: Yes, they're on the horizon but mint/unused Large Queens will cost quite a bit more...twice as much as the Small Queens, not counting the three laid paper issues (a paltry $442,500).

Yeah that's true. So you mean that you probably won't be collecting them too ?

Oh no, I will be collecting them but it will take more time to acquire them. I'll finish the other sets I mentioned first unless some great deals present themselves.

Great ! I have a pretty good Canadian collection too, but I have only one small queen ! Would be interesting to get more

Well done Walkman82

Proof positive that patience and perseverance are two necessary traits in our hobby!

Beautifully done Paul, and the page looks great - not crowded
