Denmark Postage Due Stamp, Blue

Denmark · 1921 · 25 øre

This definitive postage due stamp features a large numeral '25' indicating its value, framed by ornate scrollwork. The Danish crown is prominently displayed at the top, with the word 'PORTO' below, signifying its purpose to collect postage owed. The design is functional and clear, typical for this type of postal issue.

Issued in the early 1920s, this stamp was part of a series used by the Danish postal service to collect insufficient postage from the recipient of a letter or parcel. This series replaced earlier postage due designs and remained in use for several years.
