Hello,

A while back a gentleman gave my grandfather a stamp. It is a civil engineering stamp, and came with a letter telling about the stamp. I scanned in the envelope, stamp, and letter. The letter should explain most of it. The only thing missing is the address on the front of the envelope. I cropped this out to hide the gentlemans name that gave my pap the stamp. Anyhow the question I have is if anyone knows anything about this stamp, and if it has any value.

Thank you for your help.

This is a First Day Cover (FDC).

They are very attractive and make a most interesting collection, especially with the envelope and original letter.

However, I'd keep the day job. The stamp is quite common.

You have sentimental value here, not monetary.

I'd have it framed, what an honor for your grandfather.

Thank you for the replies. That answers my Grandfathers question.

Thanks again
