seebeck also apparently insisted on printing stamps with values not relevant to the postal rates of the countries using them. there are many long series of stamps where only a few values corresponded to common postal uses. the remaining values were intended for collectors. [this is open to debate for honduras, nicaragua and el salvador. for honduras and nicaragua the following denomination paid these rates: 1c - local post card, 2c domestic post card, 5c domestic letter, 10c double domestic letter or foreign letter, 20c - double rate foreign letter or single foreign letter plus registration, 25c - single foreign letter plus registration plus acknowledgement of receipt, 30c - triple foreign letter rate, 40c - 4 times single foreign letter rate, 50c - 5 times foreign letter rate, 75c - 6 times foreign letter rate plus registration plus ar (at least one such cover is known to exist), 1 p - very heavy letters or packages. for el salvador the following rates were paid: 1c - local card rate, 2c - domestic card rate, 3c - foreign card rate, 5c domestic letter rate, 10c single letter rate to pacific rim countries, 11c - single foreign letter rate for letters transiting panama, 12c, single letter rate to pacific rim countries when the rate changed from 10c to 12c, 13c - single letter rate for via panama when the rates went from 15c to 13c, 15c - single letter rate to transit panama when the rates changed. 20c - double foreign letter rate for pacific rim countries or single rate plus registration, 24c - double letter rate to pacific rim countries, 25c - single foreign pacific rim letter rate plus registration and ar, 26c double letter rate for via panama when rate went from 15c to 13c, 30c - double foreign letter rate for transit by panama when rates changed or single rate plus registration plus ap, 50c & 1 p - very heavy letter and packets. except for nicaragua where commercial letters bearing the 1p, 5p and 10p stamps are known, the 2p, 5p and 10p stamps were not used although a few compliance covers are known.]
