The following list are of what items we would appreciate receiving:
STAMPS: Definitive/Commemorative stamps mint or used. Those cut from envelopes should have minimum of quarter inch (5mm approx.) borders. No damaged stamps please.
STAMPS: Any First Day Covers particularly those dated before 1965, with special postmarks are desirable. Please do not bend/fold them as this will seriously reduce their value.
The new barcoded stamps are still a collectable item, so these can be included when sending bulk stamps to MMN. However, stamps which have been printed onto envelopes instead of stuck on are not collectable so shouldn't be included.
POSTCARDS: British & foreign, new & used. Please refrain from removing stamps from the cards. Postcard albums put together between 1895 & 1930 are highly desirable.
COINS/MEDALS: Coins and medallions from any location around the world. It would be appreciated that they are of reasonable quality and good condition.
COLLECTIONS: 1) Stamps 2) FDI Covers 3) Postcards 4) Coins/Medallions are all welcomed. These often can be sold better as complete collections which will maximise funds.
All items are most gratefully received towards the ongoing work of MMN.
Please send them to the MMN office:
Unit 16, Star West,
Westmead Drive,
Swindon,
SN5 7SW.
