Indicium 1s 9d

The minimum inland registration fee was
increased on 1 Feb 1961 from 1s to 1s 6d.
This continued to provide compensation up
to £20.

This change forced a new 1s 9d, allowing for
the minimum inland postage rate of 3d.

Embossed 1s 9d indicium omitted
The text on the back ‘Fee 1s 6d minimum’ confirms the intended value
