Message: sorry, 2 subjects here, germany used PORTO CDS & m/s markings for postage due, not seen any for the later inflation period, I assume the system broke down with no-one willing to pay postage due etc. meter marks only just being introduced,were they m/cs in POs or private ones? the highest value I've seen is 1 million marks, I assume this system broke down as well, couldn't get all the noughts in and couldn't account for the money? well that's 3 Q's, excellant service anyway!
