Empire - Small Shield Issues

 The first stamps of the Unified German Empire depicted the national symbol, an eagle, with a shield on it's breast. These are found in small and large shield varieties. They are hard to find in 'perfect' condition. Alas, some of mine need to be upgraded.

This is a folded letter to New York City with three one Groschen small shield stamps paying the international rate.
