1892 Courier Leipzig private post overprinted with 2 hammers for use in Grimma. Not sure if I have access to my catalog to get you a catalog number.
I'll leave it to others to determine whether genuine.

Grimma is a town in Saxony, located in the district of Leipzig. Yes, roughly 30km southeast of Leipzig (at that time). |

OK, I found my Michel. In Michel, the base stamp is Leipzig (D. = Courier) #13(Mar1893).
Your variety is overprinted for use in Grimma (9Mar1893 to 10Jul1893). The cancel on your stamp appears to be outside the date of use listed in Michel. Again, I leave it to others to determine if genuine.
