The word "philately" is the English version of the French word "philatélie", coined by Georges Herpin in 1864.
Herpin stated that stamps had been collected and studied for the last six or seven years and a better name was required for the new hobby than timbromanie which was disliked. He took the Greek root word phil or philo, meaning an attraction or affinity for something, and ateleia, meaning "exempt from duties and taxes" to form "philatelie". The introduction of postage stamps meant that the receipt of letters was now free of charge, whereas before stamps it was normal for postal charges to be paid by the recipient of a letter.
Close examination of the Penny Red left, reveals a "148" in the margin, indicating that it was printed with plate 148. Stamps printed from plate 77 are extremely rare.
