Iowa Stamps and Coins

Terry taught high school psychology and economics at two different high schools for thirty seven years starting in 1963. Summers were spent in graduate school or working at various jobs. Usually it was teaching driver's education to thirty-five fifteen year old students. Rebecca worked for several insurance companies and real estate companies plus raising two boys.

Iowa Stamps & Coins was created in 1979 while the owners were looking for new challenges.

Having been a stamp collector since 1949 has helped with the knowledge needed philatelically.

At the inception of ISC it was not known whether the main focus would be stamps or coins. As time passed stamps became the largest part of the business. Today stamps account for 98% of our sales.

Rebecca's role has been to take orders from phone calls and to complete the many jobs that exist in an office.

We would like to wish you success and assist you in reaching your stamp collecting goals. Feel free to email questions (iowasc@netins.net) concerning your philatelic needs. A special thank you for visiting our web site.
