I'm new to collecting stamps as I was recently given two large collections. Just wanted to say hi. I've got a lot to learn. Stamp collecting is a lot harder than coins!
Hello Nelson from Fort Worth, Texas. This is a friendly site where you can find a lot of information on stamp collecting and get your questions answered.
great Christmas (or equivalent) if you wound up with two collections. What a great way to start.
There's tons to read here, on Discussion board, articles, exhibits, and more. Pick and explore. If you have unanswered questions after looking and reading, ask.
Welcome aboard
David

In your defense, with your coin collecting background, you have a well-developed appreciation for condition, which, as in coin-collecting, is tremendously important to stamp valuation.
