Poland Meter Stamp, Type BA5b
Poland · 1994 · 10000 ZL
A circular franking impression from Poland, featuring 'POCZTA POLSKA' at the top, '10000 ZL' and '1994' in the center, and 'WARSZAWA 1' at the bottom. It also includes the machine type 'BA5b'.
This meter stamp reflects the high denominations common in Poland during the early 1990s due to hyperinflation, just prior to the 1995 redenomination of the Złoty. Meter stamps were widely used by businesses for efficient mail processing.
