This video is about 100+ Rare and Most Valuable Egyptian Stamps. Egypt has one of the world’s oldest postal systems, possibly the oldest if one counts the methods used to transport letters and other items during the ancient Egyptian period. It also has one of the world’s oldest dedicated postal museums presenting this history to wider audiences in the Egyptian Postal Museum housed in the main Post Office building in Ataba Square in Downtown Cairo. However, this history, already well known among philatelists and stamp-collectors worldwide, may not at present be appropriately exploited. First Egyptian stamps were issued on 1 January 1866. The 1867 issue featured a pyramid and the sphinx. Stamps issued in 1872 were inscribed in Italian "Poste Khedive Egiziane'. Egypt joined the UPU in 1875. From 1879 stamps were inscribed in French.
In my video I have briefly discussed the characteristics of stamps.
