nikhil, It appears that you are off to a good start. Once you've met our 14 day/50 quality post requirement, you'll have additional opportunities to add to your collection.

Nice looking stamps nikhil. I like The Mozambique Co. stamps especially, part of a large set 1918-31 Scott # 108-145(37). Yours are respectively : Scott # 141 (1925) - # 136 (1925) - # 131 (1925) - # 138 (1925) |

nikhil , It appears that you are off to a good start. Once you've met our 14 day/50 quality post requirement, you'll have additional opportunities to add to your collection. , I agree with Steve. It does seem that you are off to a good start--congratulations! You have some nice older issues in a number of the selections you have shown. I noticed that the logo for STAMPEX, an Indian stamp dealer, is shown in most of the images. I suppose you have been buying from STAMPEX, then? When I looked at their website, it seems to be mostly topicals and WW packets. Anyway, nice work starting this thread, and showing us all some of what you have found. |

thanks for the scott no's . i don't have a catalogue. For U.S. stamps you can find Scott numbers online from the Mystic stamp catalog found here. For Worldwide, various catalog numbers (less Scott) may be found on the Colnect site located here. |

The requirement is not either/or but rather both. Continue to make "quality" posts. Once you have made a total of 50 quality posts you will have achieved full member status and I'll make the adjustment needed to enable you to post in the Buy, Sell and Trade category and request being added to the Mailing Address group. |

For Worldwide, various catalog numbers (less Scott) may be found on the Colnect site located here. I agree as well, it's a nice start to your collection. Another web site for stamps is at StampWorld.com - they use their own numbering system, so it is different from Scott. |
