If there isn't one already, perhaps something like <tt>Stamp_XXXXX_999999.jpg</tt> where XXXXX is the issuing country name (which would expand to as long as is needed for the country name) and 999999 is the Scott catalog number (including leading zeros). For example, <tt>Stamp_United_States_B00001.jpg</tt> would be the filename for the first US semipostal for breast cancer research, while <tt>Stamp_Prince_Edward_Island_000015.jpg</tt> would be the filename for Scott number 15 of stamps issued by PEI. I mention Scott numbers only because that's the set of catalogs that I've got handy and it provides a handy example. We could include the catalog name in the filename, but that seems a bit much.
