Philately is a hobby that grows on you as your collection gets bigger and bigger. Before you realize, stamp collection becomes an encompassing passion for which you somehow manage to keep aside a couple of hours of your grinding schedule.
Every stamp collector dreams of having a collection that has valuable and rare stamps which will enhance the net value of their collection. However, it is an extremely difficult task to find a rare stamp unless you know what you are looking for and then pursue it vigorously. Rare stamps are not in constant circulation because stamp collectors hold them permanently when they come across one.
Stamps are categorized as rare because of errors in printing, perforation and content. Age is another factor that increases their value because stamps that are older are scarce and difficult to locate. Another category is the limited edition stamps which are also valuable because they exist in small numbers. You must have detailed knowledge of philately to be able to source rare and valuable stamps.
Unused or mint condition stamps in good condition attract greater value. Stamps that have no cancellation marks, are free of defects and have its original gum will add great value to your collection. Perforations are another parameter used to gauge the value of a stamp. Some perforations may be rare and can increase the value of a stamp significantly.
