Hi preussen fan
Not much fact I can add to above, other than I think your Ganzsache is a really nice object - and the Lüneburg arrival postmark on the back is quite difficult to find.. Also nice detail on back with "Ein Silbergroschen Post Couvert"
Cheers, Ole
Hi DSBerlin
Great stuff - thanks for sharing! Very interesting with the post offices selling Prussian stamps to be used in SH (including Lauenburg) and to understand exactly the practice behind it.
Interestingly, it seems that - otherwise much rarer - postmarks from fx Schwarzenbeck and Büchen, are more "common" than eg "Altona" on Prussian stamps.
Strange niche in SH philately- and I am happy to follow your obervations on this subject!
Cheers, Ole
Thanks guys 
nordlicht: That is my dream scenario, but I am pretty sure that my banker does not agree with me 
Mojn!
After many years with tears, sweat and a blood red budget, I have finally collected all five ESR-type postmarks from Schleswig-Holstein.
They are all coverfronts and addressed to Frederik Höyberg, Visby Mølle, as all covers with SH ESR-postmarks are (with the very few exceptions discussed elsewhere in this thread).
This is a major milestone in my collection and for a long time, I have been looking forward to take below photo😊

Some time after the 1864-war ended, a postal convention was agreed, which allowed dk stamps to be used in the the post office in Lübeck. By 1/10/1865 the rate was 6 skilling, illustrated below by a 4 sk Ganzsache upfranked with dk#11.

I can add another detail to this cover: There exist surprisingly many covers from Apenrade franked with 3 x 4 skilling, compared to fx Hadersleben or Sønderborg. They are almost always addressed to Rostock (probably originating from same correspondance), and as far as I recall, this is the only "non-Rostock" cover I have seen from Apenrade with 3 x 4sk.
Cheers

Hi DSBerlin
I won it on vf-auktion.dk earlier today - VF usually doesn't have so much material from Alt Deutschland, so I was lucky

Here is another example of a Prussian stamp used in SH:
1 sbgr with DK antiqua-type postmark from Schwarzenbeck to Lübeck.
Seems like the SH stations on the Hamburg - Berlin railway (Büchen, Schwarzenbeck and Friedrichsruh) is the primary origin of this phenonema - leaving DSBerlin's excellent Ratzeburg ganzsache as the exception that confirms the rule (Ratzeburg not a Hamburg-Berlin Bahn station).
Could it be, that these Prussian stamps were only sold in the towns on the Hamburg-Berlin railway ?
Cheers,
Ole
Cameo: Line canceller "Schwarzenbeck" on a Prussian Ganzsache...
I say the same as DSBerlin: 👍👍👍
Drop a note to me, if you one day get tired of having this in your collection 😊
Cheers,
Ole
Hehe, antiqua Schwarzenbeck on a Prussian stamp - added to my shopping list along with Büchen and Friedrichsruhe, in the category "Things I didn't know existed, but now I need it"😊
Cheers,
Ole
Hi DSBerlin
Good advice by nordlicht - and good findings by you😊
Interesting btw, that you have both Büchen and Friedrichsruhe on Preussian stamps. As far as I remember were both stations on the Hamburg-Berlin railway - perhaps a connection? (nordlicht😊?)
Both antiqua postmarks from Büchen and Friedrichsruhe are in the very difficult end. Rare and attractive material - interesting chapter in SH postal history!
Cheers,
Ole
Hi DSBerlin
I'm quite impressed over your collection of Preussen used in Schleswig-Holstein!
The postmark seems to me like the antiqua VI from Friedrichsruhe, which in itself is an uncommon postmark.
Thanks for sharing 👍
Cheers,
Ole
...the date of April 2, 1851 would be interesting, being a second-day letter in Danish philately (Fire RBS, Ferslew print came out April 1st), however, I think both month and year immediately is difficult to confirm...
Cheers,Ole
Dear nordlicht
I agree with your comments - and I also do not know any other SH postmarks on 2 RBS Thiele.
Wrt "168", I think this is only "semi-confirmed" - the only proof I personally have seen, is below from Bruun-Rasmussen, auction 863. However, I agree with Vagn Jensen and Lasse Nielsen, that this is most likely postmark "168".
Wrt 2 RBS cancelled "121" in Kiel: A non-defective copy, is in top-3 of my manco list😊
Cheers, Ole
The second Danish stamp, 2 Rigsbankskilling, was intended to be used for local mail in Copenhagen, being the only in city in Denmark large enough, to have a local mail service in 1851/52 (apart from Aalborg - Nørresundby).
The stamp came in to prints, 2a (Ferslew print, 1851 - burlage on copper plates) and 2b (Thiele print, 1852).
Almost all 2a's are mutely cancelled, while 2b are typically cancelled with numeral "1" (Copenhagen).
Very few 2 RBS-stamps exist with other postmarks than mute or "1" - numeral "34" (Copenhagen railway service) being the most "often" seen.
Below is a rare copy used in Schleswig-Holstein, cancelled by the Holstein railroad with numeral "170".
The stamp was in Carl Aage Møllers (BPP) private collection until 2012, where it was auctioned by Postiljonen (Sweden).
Cheers, Ole
"eine urspünglich vorhandene (dänische) Krone fehlt, weil diese von den schleswig-holsteinischen Rebellen herausgebrochen wurde."
Good and interesting observation, nordlicht!!!👍👍👍
Cheers,Ole

Exceedingly rare and attractive item, missing in my collection, as I have not seen one before - thanks for sharing!!👍
Cheers, Ole
Hi nordlicht
I agree. Fire RBS combined with either of the Bergedorf cancellations are exceedingly rare, but apparently not impossible.
Cheers, Ole
Hi Volker,
Thank you for sharing. It is important to note, that there exist two different cancellations on Danish skilling from Bergedorf - the "5-line" and the "segment", as shown on the picture. Both are rare, and I would consider the segment type slightly rarer than 5-line. When Mozek writes it's unique, he must think of the combination of segment-cancellation and Fire RBS. Segment type on other skilling issues (#4, #7) are certainly rare, but also well known.
Cheers,
Ole
