Thanks for taking us with you around the boot sale! I've got quite a big collection of first day covers, 1971-2002, I can never sell them because many of them have my Mum's writing on them and as she is gone now, they are precious to me.
I would spend hours at a boot sale like that... and probably come away with nothing as I would not be willing to pay their prices!!! The Ceylon 5 cents is a nice coin, always something nice about non-round coinage
I never have any luck with boot sales around my neck of the woods. Will have to start going again. Although not my cup of tea but some really nice coin covers there. I do buy a few myself but post them on to a friend.
UK first-day covers and the commemorative stamps that adorn them were purchased by doting parents and loving relatives, most often for their children, thinking that one day they would have some value or collectibility. The reality is that in the world of stamps and stamp collecting, they are considered pretty much worthless. That’s why you often see them for sale. First-day covers issued before World War II may have some collectability.
I love a rummage at a bootie. Sometimes people see something on eBay and think that is the value. Nice to see a bootie by the sea 👍😎🍀💜
it is a good one to go to if it’s a nice day - that’s when we get ‘career’ stall holders and families - so a good mix
Nice finds I have that Celon coin I use it as a demo when I do a coin show so people can see a square coin most coins are round

i can understand that. it’s odd the queen victoria obsession…i’m not quite sure what it’s is - i think it’s the gothic esq feeling with them

i think the vicky silver coins ,were drilled with hole guessing 60s 70s , a a piece of jew ery , on silver chain , as they were all silver
yeah that is a possibility- my grandad used to do that actually
Is there a big market for first day covers in the UK? It seems like they are more of a back burner item in the US.
there a dedicated stamps collectors in england. i grew up with friends of the family that were absolutely obsessed with stamps
I collected stamps back in the 70's and early 80's got out just before prices tanked.@@TheCoinChaser

yes apparently pre 1950’s are the ones to look out for
Some of these folk seem to think they are sitting on a gold mine
