Hi Graham, it was me who sent the morse code/Overland Telegraph postcard. It basically said "Hi Graham, I hope you like my morse code themed postcard. Sincerely, Kate" It was hard putting all the dots and dashes together in such a small space.

[@ExploringStamps]

Wooohooo!!! I got Kate correct 😊. That was so much fun. Thanks Kate!!

Hello Graham. Happy to see that the Iranian cards I sent you made it there. You are right about no "official" access to KZbin in Iran. However, using VPN , we kinda manage (really slow connections though). Your program is the main reason I go through lots of apps to get access to KZbin. Send my best regards to Laura for being patient with your philatelic interests. You'll hear more from me. And I don't think you have my address on the cards. I'll write the address on the next round of cards I send. Ehsan (yes, you pronounced it correctly the first time)

[@ExploringStamps]

Oh wow! Thank you so much for sending the postcards 😊 . One of the postcards that I did not show had your address on it, so I sent a reply postcard earlier this week, fingers crossed that it arrives soon.

Hi Graham Reg. the Hering price. Actually the DDR (GDR) used both DM (Deutsche Mark), MDM (Mark der Deutschen Notenbank) and M (Mark). DM from 1948-64. Then MDN from 64-67. And from 1968 on, the M denomination. So this Hering made in Rostock DDR is from the sixties. Yours from 🇩🇰, Claus (I collect DDR so this part of your super #hashtag philately was very interesting to me)

Oh fantastic!! Thank you for shedding some light on this. I knew that there would be a knowledgeable viewer out there with the answer 😊

Hi Graham! I'm sure someone has already mentioned this, but the Iranian stamp with the downed helicopter is in 'commemoration' of the failed hostage rescue on April 24, 1980.

[@StampCatStamps]

Graham what a fantastic episode! I LOVE what they did with the carousel stamps... That was exciting for me because contrary to popular opinion I was originally not a huge fan of them - mostly because I think a single stamp from that set on an envelope looks awkward due to the shape. But obviously I was being unimaginative! The way they displayed it on the parcel is brilliant and turned me from a 'hater' into a fan! Haha. Dragged my husband over to see and he said it looks like a board game. How cool! Someday I hope to bring the little one out to that carousel, too! 5 cents is not a bad price at all. Thanks for this episode, you make them look effortless. 🐱

[@ExploringStamps]

😊 Yay thank you Lisa! Why didn't I think of board game?! It is so obvious now that you mention it, Chris and Edan did such a wonderful job with the parcel. You totally have to take the little one on a carousel ride in the future.. 5 cents to ride a lion is SO cheap, Canada sounds a little more affordable than New Jersey 🦁😂 . Thanks so much for watching, glad you enjoyed it!

Thank you so much for putting your content and enthusiasm in your videos. I live in The Netherlands and it is not very commun for people younger then 70 years old to collect stamps here. I never stopped collecting stamps, but the last years i started again to be enthusiastic about this great hobby. And now I am on fire with the hobby and can't stop working about it. Its your KZbin videos that makes me more enthusiastic and encourage me to share it also with younger people! Thank you so much, Camiel.

[@ExploringStamps]

Hi Camiel! so great to see that you are enjoying the hobby again, and welcome to the channel. 😊 The more we learn and share, the more we grow philately. Thank you so much for watching and interacting with the channel, more videos to come.

[@kurtschleger]

The pre-decimal system is very old and dates back to the reform of Charlemagne in the eighth century. The basis was one pound of silver, called "libra". It was divided into twelve solidi and 240 denarii. This is where the predecimal symbols on British stamps come from: the pound symbol for libra, the shilling for the solid, and the penny for the denarius.

[@ExploringStamps]

Excellent! Thank you for the additional info, it all starts to make sense when looking at the historical aspects of the old system. 😊

[@iainmalcolm9583]

Another great episode. Lots to learn about. My personal recollection about the UK decimal day in 1971. I was just starting to sit my school exams at that time so had to forget all I had learned about the old £/s/d and switch to £/p. (I also had to juggle Imperial/metric unit around the same time. (Science subjects were using cm/Kg etc but everything else was still in feet/pounds). An odd fact about machins in the UK. In 1997, there was a set of machins issued as 20, 26, 37 & 63 (others followed). The 'P' was left out because they were issued as Welsh Regional stamps and pence is not a Welsh word. There were also dual language NVI's so Welsh stamps had 1 AF/ST or 2 AIL/ND on them. Not content with swapping from QEII to KCIII, 'forever' stamps (we call them NVI, No value indicated) without the QR code will no longer be valid in the UK from sometime this year.

[@ExploringStamps]

Thanks Iain 😊 . I kinda wish that the US would fully switch to metric, juggling imperial and metric is quite a pain (I still don't have a full grasp of the imperial system). Yes I learned about the missing P issues 😬. I dont think I have any, but something that I need to pay closer attention to, a Machin collection has so many nuances to enjoy. Thanks so much for watching!

[@KristiaanVanErmengem]

I'm surprised Decimal Day invalidated old stamps. I still receive mail with stamps in Belgian Franks, even though we've been using the Euro for over 20 years.

[@ExploringStamps]

Yeah I’m not sure what the arrangement is with Belgian Frank stamps, but I know that Italian Lire stamps are still used and are valid for postage. For decimal day, the stamps had to be swapped with the post office within a certain period of time, I think the same with cash as well.

[@jamesshattell1425]

I've been using a magnifying lamp, like the one you shown, for many years now. I got it from an art supply store. Another good reason to keep the glass cover is to keep in dust free. Keeping the glass clean is important to getting the best viewing.

As an astronomer, another reason to cover up the lens is the static and build up of dust.. Covering it up will reduce that. Normally over short periods of time the dust can easily be wiped away but given time it seems to stick (most likely due to humidity) and then needs a bit of effort to clean off.

Not sure if anyone has mentioned this Australia (1901-1966) and the former colonies that became Australia (1788-1900) used UK predecimal currency £sd. We didn’t have Australian (national) banknotes or coins until 1910, before then we used a miss-mash of UK and other coins with local banks issuing their own banknotes too. Australia changed to decimal currency on Saturday, 14 February, 1966 at a rate of $AUD2 for one pound.
