11, 12, 15 (perforations and margins trimmed off by custom of "polite society") [2, 3, and 16 skilling Royal Emblems] on RARE 3 June 1867 cover received in LIBAU (Cyrillic LEPAYA), LATVIA, on 26 May. Russian-controlled Latvia used the Julian calendar, thus the letter was "received before it was sent". DAKA lists (at DKK 12,000!) only one 21 skilling rate to Russia and makes no mention of covers with that rate known to the much more sought-after Baltic collecting area of Latvia. Though has a virtually invisible archival crease affecting the #15, is overall a very attractive and colorful cover with #181 duplex railway cancellation.

11, 13, 14 [1864 2, 4, 8 Skilling Arms] (VF, VF, Fine) on 5 March 1870 folded cover with contents, with #181 (Sjælland railway) 3-ring duplex numeral cancels. To LONDON, with red receiver on reverse. This combination of stamps to make the 14 skilling rate is listed by DAKA 1999 at DKK 2800 (approx $475 then and now). Wonderfully bright colors. Very attractive.

11, 18 [1865 2 sk Crown and Scepter, Perf 13 x 12.5; 1870 4 skilling Bicolor, Perf 14 x 13.5] (VF, F-VF) on 4 February [1871 per the contents] folded cover with at least partial business accounts contents. RAILWAY cancellation 3-ring 216 and dated side postmark "J.JERNB.P.SP." (Jydske Jernbane Post Spedition). To Haderslev (Slesvig / Schleswig), with GERMAN "WAMDRUP / [date] / FLENSBURG" railway transit postmark on reverse (VAMDRUP, in southern Denmark). Also with two German "AUSG." (outbound) transit postmarks. [Though the German railway postmark was applied to mail from within Denmark to Schleswig/Slesvig, I have been unable to find any listings of this postmark -- or of similar types/uses -- in either the Danish or Schleswig postmark literature. That seems like a glaring omission!] According to "DAKA Danmark 1999" the 6 skilling postage rate from the Danish Kingdom to Schleswig was in effect from 16 July 1865 up through the currency change after the end of 1874 -- and in 1999 assigned a value of DKK 1800. The stamps and overall cover are in excellent condition. A very nice and colorful example of mixed issues -- seldom seen.
