Welcome to our page on Bermuda stamps
Bermuda
issued their first stamps in 1848, and continue to do so
right up to the present day.
Best to start
your collection from 1865 because the stamps between
1848-61 cost over £100,000 each!
Lots of very
nice stamps from Bermuda including some hard to find
Victorian head stamps  also all the high values from King
George V and King George V1 are always on the top of
collectors wish lists.

collect)
Good country to start to build a
collection, lots of really good stamps still on the
market, look to buy at less than half catalogue
value.
