Preguntas Frecuentes
Why are first day covers valuable?
FDCs are collectible because they combine stamps and postal history in one piece.
Is a first day cancel worth more than the stamp alone?
Often yes. FDCs can be worth 2-5x the stamp value depending on rarity.
Do I need special covers for FDCs?
No, any cover (envelope) postmarked on first day counts. Cacheted covers are specially designed.
