ENCASED STAMP Germany. Berlin stamp dealer. Pictorial.

German (post-)WW1 Encased Postage (1919-20). Both sides covered with clear thin celluloid, held in place by a metal rim.

BERLIN. M&G Zeitung.   Stamp: 50-Pfennig (numeral type). New condition, or just about. It's hard to grade the wear on celluloid more precisely.

Neither common or uncommon, I expect this will sell around $40-60.

Postage is $2.58 insured in the USA, $13 (Air-Registered) overseas. Will combine shipping. An additional piece usually costs you NOTHING extra  in postage, even on overseas packages.
