Philatelic Twins

Question: How do you call a stamp pair when the stamp inside the envelope (the one you bought say, on eBay) is the same as the canceled stamp on the envelope it came in?

 

I am going to venture into inventing a new term: #PhilatelicTwins.

 

Isn’t it analogous to the times before ultrasound, when you think you’re having a baby, but you get twins?

 

I’ve got a couple of these as I’ve been working on my Judo-themed collection.

I’m a Nidan myself (a second-degree black belt), with 20 years of judo experience, so now having fun seeing how judo is portrayed in different times and different cultures. Fun stuff!

 

If you’ve got any Philatelic Twins yourself, share! They’re pretty cool, I think.
