Postage Stamp - Cadet Sailing Fleet of the USSR - Four-masted Barque "Krusenshtern" - Soviet Union 1981 - Michel Soviet Union 5116 - my hobby.

Greetings friends!

Crypto coins are like sailing ships, they wait for a tailwind, but there is a significant difference that we are seeing today.

The wind is actively blowing towards #LEO, and the sails of all other ships in my wallet are lowered, complete calm, lol.

They could try to start the steam engines, but no, they, like me, want to fill up their wallet with #lions.

There is only one question left, why did you guys create your own, your own coin, if you prefer to buy other people's coins and lower the rate of your own coin, just hand them over for scrap, it will be like a man, honestly. Just admit that your coins suck.

Okay, sometimes. you need to throw out emotions, so that it would become easier on the soul, lol.

Let's go back to the postage stamps and sailing ships from Series Cadet Sailing Fleet of the USSR, issued in the USSR in 1981.

Another postage stamp depicts one of the finest sailing ships Four-masted Barque "Krusenshtern", which made its maiden voyage in 1926.

Probably, this is the most famous sailing ship, most of the cadets of the naval school dreamed of getting on board the #Kruzenshtern.

Now, let's take a look at a postage stamp.

Important!

  1. Please note that the cost of shipping postage stamps to other countries can be many times more expensive than the postage stamp itself, approximately $ 5.5.

  2. I see that it is not profitable to purchase one postage stamp if, suddenly, you need to replenish your collection. It is always more profitable to purchase the entire series, and, surplus, to change, or sell.

  3. If you decide to buy a postage stamp online, be careful. sometimes sellers use stock images. But this option is unacceptable. You need to see exactly the product that you are buying.

  4. If you are afraid that the postage stamp sellers will want to deceive you, you are doing the right thing, do not doubt it.

  5. To get started with this hobby, buy a good magnifying glass, tweezers with flat and thin edges and a stockbook for postage stamps, they will come in handy.

  6. When buying postage stamps, pay special attention to the back of the postage stamp. The adhesive layer must not be damaged.

  7. There is such an expression - How many people, so many opinions, this also applies to sellers of postage stamps. Each of them believes that his postage stamp is in perfect condition, but only you yourself can find the perfect postage stamp for yourself.

  8. Sometimes, a small, white scrap of paper with a round stamp on it and a number inscribed in the center circle can be a very valuable postage stamp from the days when postage stamps were not printed.

  9. The cost of a postage stamp is determined by supply and demand, but usually in catalogs you can see the estimated cost of a postage stamp in Pounds Sterling.

  10. In terms of quality, postage stamps can be divided into three groups: used postage stamps that were pasted on and removed from the envelope, canceled postage stamps that were canceled at the post office, by order and sent for sale, and clean, uncanceled postage stamps. As you can imagine, these three types of postage stamps, their conditions, greatly affect their value.

For my publications, I do not use stock photographs, it is fundamentally important for me to use photographs that I have made with my own hands for publication and I can name them - authorial work.
