7k Soviet PSE used in Belarus after the dissolution of the USSR, mailed from Rechytsa Gomel region to St Petersburg, Russia (backstamp of Leningrad of 18/1). The PSE had been initially uprated, first to 15k with the octagonal "Post USSR" handstamp, then to 1 ruble with the "Taxe Percue" rectangular handstamp. By January 1993, the galloping inflation required an additional 1 ruble Belarus stamp to cover the proper rate.

1 krb Ukrainian PSE used from the village of Novoivanovka, Khorolskiy uezhd, Poltava to Kiev. By this time in the inflationary period the intercity letter rate had increased to 100 karbovanets, so a rectangular "PAID" (Oplachen) handstamp with a handwritten "99" was used to indicate payment of the necessary sum.

7 kopecks Soviet PSE used after the dissolution of the Soviet Union from Zelenodolsk, Tatarstan, Russia to St Petersburg. A violet handstamp "Paid excess sum" handstamp was used to make up the 80 kopecks domestic letter rate. The manuscript charge should have been "0,73" - a mistake? (5k PSE's were also current at the time)

30 kopecks Russian PSE used during the inflationary period after the dissolution of the Soviet Union in St Petersburg (the old Soviet postmark with the city name as Leningrad is used). Two octagonal "paid" meter handstamps of the St Petersburg post-office (for 970k and 500k) were used to supplement the PSE indicium and make up the 15 rubles rate valid from August 1993 to January 1994.

November 16th, 1993
30 kopecks Russian PSE used locally in St Petersburg. The envelope had been originally uprated (during 1992) to 1 ruble 50k with the application of the octagonal "Post Paid 120 kop" handstamp. The rapid rise of the postal rates during this inflationary period made necessary an additional re-valuation with the application of the rectangular "TP" (=Taxe Percue) handstamp, to make up the new rate of 15 rubles.
