The letter carries the entire Asian Attractions II set plus stamps from the Bird set from 1981; Postal Administration Center (imperforate), Charity Organization Golden Heart and Ministry of Post and Telecommunication sets. Imperforate stamps on postally used cover are very rare.The Bird stamps were still denominated in old Dong. On September 14th, 1985 the Vietnamese Government conducted a devaluation which devalued the old Dong by 10:1. This meant old stamps used after that date were only worth one tenth of their face value.  The overall postage of the letter therefore amounted to 0.80 oD :10 = 0.08 nD plus stamps already in new Dong (20,850nD) for a total of 20,850.08D.
