The American Stamp and Coin Foundation is a non-profit, 501-3C organization, serving the public now for thirty years. By calling our Los Angeles, California office directly, (310) 275-3256 we answer questions about stamp collecting. Office hours are 10am - 4pm Pacific Time. Our organization donates much of its time and material to hospitals and youth groups with a specific emphasis on young children who we hope to interest in the hobby of stamp collecting.

Our Director, Michael DuBasso has been the Foundation Director for over forty years. He is a knowledgeable philatelist and renowned appraiser in his field.

We are also the only non-profit organization in the United States that properly appraises a stamp collection. For further information see Appraisal Services.

There comes a time when a person who has inherited a stamp collection must make a decision to sell it or have the collection appraised to determine value. Simply put you must trust someone. We highly recommend you put your trust with the ASCF (American Stamp and Coin Foundation).
