Under a postal decree, letters between Lima, Callao and Chorillos sent after Jan 1, 1866 would be carried at half the normal 10 centavos / 1 dinero inland rate; thus a 5 centavos franking was required. There being no stamps, as yet, to meet this need, the 1 dinero was bisected.rnrnAusruf : 200 CHFZuschlag : 550 CHF
