Subject: RE: collecting silicon wafers
1. Stamps are printed in vast numbers
2. They are used and, in most cases, eventually destroyed
3. They are difficult to forge (convincingly)
4. Most are virtually worthless
5. A few a almost priceless
6. Many are beautiful
7. They have an inherent research interest - printing varieties,
flaws, rarities, historical interest etc.
8. They are (usually) considered most valuable unused and even
more valuable in an unbroken sheet.

The whole idea of wafer collecting got something to it, although
I think the stamp reference is a bit far fetched.

BTW: I realy love wafer masks ... they are just a bit hard to find.
So if one of y'all (sp?) got some laying around ...
