What is Philatelic Investment ?
Philatelic Investment, the investment of funds in collectible Postage Stamps for the purpose of realising a profit, is a relatively recent phenomenon. Rare stamps are among the most portable of tangible assets, and are easy to store. They offer an attractive alternative to art, antiques and other collectible investments. Tangible assets are something that you can touch and see, like a painting, antiques and of course stamps. Not all stamps are worth significant money. In fact most are not really worth anything at all. However, there are the rarer or more desirable stamps that are worth money now and you could reasonably expect to increase in value in the future.
