Hello Everybody My name is chantelle. I'm 36 years old living in Sydney Australia. I was given a few stamp albums from dad a couple years ago to find the values of his collection for him. Since then I have not stopped collecting. I'm a sucker for the aussie kgv heads. I have thousands of them and dont see myself not buying as many as I can anytime in the near future. Can't stop and won't stop ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) I have almost a complete collection of Australia stamps on seven seas pages from 1914-2020 not including all the Roo denominations. I wasn't focused on collecting the roos until recently. Looking forward to being an active member of this stamp community and hopefully getting answers to all the many questions I have. More specifically, identifying all the kgv shades which the acsc doesn't explain in depth enough for me to use that alone to figure out all the many shades of the kgv heads. Thanks for taking the time to read this.

What I collect: I collect world wide up to 1965 with several specialty albums added due to volume of material I have acquired. At this point I am focused on Canada and British America. I am always on the lookout for stamps and covers with postmarks from communities in Queens County, Nova Scotia. I do list various goods including stamps occasionally on eBay as hdm50

Welcome. King George V Australia stamps are numerous and varied, so enjoy the journey. The earlier Kangaroos will also pique your interest. You may want to get the ACSC catalogues to assist identification for varieties. Glad to have you here.
