Associating the PISA with philatelistic forgeries... Wer kommt auf solche Ideen

Hi Schlacki
Nice cover! From Kharkiv (nowadays Ukraine), right ?
Any transit postmarks on the back ?

And honestly... who needs "some random trophy", when that beer is in sight

Hi DSBerlin,
Yep, the mute 4-ring type 1 is quite common on 4 RBS. Considerably more scarce on fx DK#4. Pretty good cover actually - congratulations

Hi Harri
The compass mark was applied on ship box mail in Copenhagen (Købmagergade office) as "side postmark". It is the "dropbox version" of the normal Antiqua side mark (and having more or less the same data engraved with date).

Hi Harri
I assume the letter originates from Kiel and delivered to the ship instead of the post office. Then arrival cancelled in Copenhagen with "1", and rerouted to Hellebæk near Helsingør.
Is the letter inside dated in Kiel ?

Hi Ralph
My lack of knowledge about Bayern philately is very impressive
Nevertheless, I really, really like ink cancellations - are such scarce on Bayern / Kreuzers ?De bedste hilsner

This eBay-listing needs more cats!...and possibly also a clown

Donald Trump claimed he could stop the war in Ukraine within 24 hours. I am not a professor in math, so I checked the status with Chatgpt

In Denmark we sometimes see rare postfrisch stamps, stamped/signed by from proofer on the back.
Maybe it's a question about personal opinion. In my opinion, the expert brought a mint stamp down to unused condition, which make me bang my head into the wall.

-Husband: Sarah, Peter, Maria and I were going to the bar - and suddenly a portal to another dimension opened in the middle of the street!! First Peter walked into the portal and then the rest of us. There were colors inside that I have never seen before - and sounds that felt warm on my body. Suddenly it disappeared, we were back on the street and I dont know how long we were gone!
-Wife: Who is Maria ???!?!?!?

...Bølsbøl
Ból = "place" in old Danish. The vikings had many places in the area

"Hemme". Cover with dk#9, inside-dated Carolinenkoog, 5 November 1863, via Briefsammlungsstelle Hemme to Heide.
This is, what we in Denmark would call,West Coast Philately (= low population and many small towns), which is an area I particularly like

Hi nordlicht
Yes, you are right about the ink crosses are from Briefsammlung in Voorde, and not applied after the numerals, as I wrote - and therefore also not applied to make up for a weak cancellation as I guessed.
Lundegaard Nielsen have had the cover under microscope and he concluded, that the numeral ink is above the ink from the crosses - I misread his certificate - thanks for making me aware of this

Some ink-cancellations were more artistic, than just a cross - I have never seen any rules about this..
This battered rural cover from Gettorf (south east of Eckernförde) is franked with dk#4 and dated 1859 on the antiqua. It was sent to Goosefeld near Echkernförde.
I can recommend below post for more on Gettorf in the danish perioed.
Nr. Stpl. 171 Gettorf
Hallo zusammen,
jetzt komme ich endlich zu einer echten Neueröfffnung
In meinem heutigen Beitrag geht es um Gettorf (dän. Gettorp), heute ein kleines Städtchen mit ca. 6.800 Einwohnern im Kreis Rendsburg-Eckernförde. Gettorf ist vermutlich die älteste Ortsgründung im Bereich des Dänischen Wohld bzw. dänisch: Jernved. Die zwischen Eckernförde und Kiel liegende Halbinsel war nach der Völkerung praktisch unbesiedelt, dicht bewaldet und bildete das Nordende des Limes Saxoniae.
Die Gründung Gettorf…
A noteworthy thing about Gettorf-postmarks: Major catalogues and above post indicate, that there exist FIRE RBS (dk#1) with Gettorf's numeral strike "171". However, it has been questioned in later years, whether "171" actually exists on dk#1, as the few known copies seem to be forgeries. It is suggested, that "171" only exists on dk#4 and issues thereafter.
