Stamp collecting is the collecting of postage stamps and related objects, such as overs (envelopes or packages with stamps on them).
It is one of the world’s most popular hobbies, with estimates of the number of collectors ranking up to 20 million in the United States
alone.
Many casual collectors enjoy accumulating (tích luyõ) stamps without worrying about the tiny details, but the creation of a large or
comprehensive collection generally requires some philatelic knowledge. This is especially important for those who intend to spend
large amounts for stamps.
Stamp collectors are an important source of revenue (income) for some small countries who create limited runs of elaborate
(complicated) stamps designed mainly to be bought by stamp collectors. The stamps produced by these countries far exceed the postal
needs of the countries.
Some collectors, observing the generally rising prices of rare stamps, have taken to Philatelic Investment, Rare stamps are among the
most portable of tangible(clear) investments, and are easy to store. They offer an attractive alternative to art, other collectible
investments, and precious metals.
