The rate for letters to the United Kingdom in the closed mailbag was 14 sk. between 1 November 1865 and 31 December 1872. An exceptional and unique cover sent overland via Kolding to catch up the closed mailbag. Notice that the lower 4 sk. stamp has a manuscript “Paid”, which is very unusual, and almost certainly made to point out that this stamp paid the additional domestic rate for catching up the closed mailbag, the only recorded example of such a cover.

LILLE" entry cds in red. Reverse with two LUEBECK transit cds's, one from the Stadtpost, the other from the Thurn & Taxis post office as well as LILLE transit and DUNKERQUE arrival (April 1) cds's. Despatched shortly after the beginning of the Danish-Prussian War with the normal rate to Dunkerque being 28 sk. between 1 April 1862 and 31 July 1865, but this letter seems to have been sent by private ship to Lübeck and re-posted at the Stadt Post Office in Lübeck due to the war. The P.D. strike and the lack of a postage due charge suggests that this letter was actually considered fully prepaid by the 24 sk., however this letter deserves some extra archival research to figure out the correct rate description. An attractive and intriguing cover with a significant pedigree, certs. Møller (2002), Nielsen (2004).

JB.P.SP.’ railway duplex datestamp, "P.D." in red and French "PRUSSE ERQUELINES" entry cds in blue alongside. Reverse with Prussian and French TPO's, PARIS transit and BORDEAUX arrival (Aug 29) cds's. As Denmark and France used different weight increments, the resulting rates being in force from 1 August 1865 to 31 January 1868 were difficult with 23 skilling for the first weight up to 7.5 grams; 34 skilling for the second weight of 7.5-15 grams; and 57 skilling for the third weight of 15-22.5 grams. This letter is franked with 46 sk., which is twice the first weight rate. Probably the sender or the postal cleck forgot that the weight progressions for the non-French and French parts were different and that higher weight class rates were not simple multiples of the first weight rate. Due to the PD handstamp not taxed in France, an interesting cover with a nice overall appearance. Cert. Møller (2012). Provenance: Postiljonen sale 201, lot 682 (Image 1) (Image 2) (Image 3)
