I - "5" is thick; "M" has slight serifs
II - "5" thinner; "M" has distinct serifs.
Michel has more clarification, but it is in German. Any translate the text into English?

I would say your stamp is type 1, the curve of the 5 is quite thick unlike that of type 2.

Definitely type 1. I suppose I have a more recent Michel, because this is far easier to look for: does the guy have an ear?
Edit: wrong altogether! This is Michel 81, not 66: Deutsches Reich, not Reichspost! 81 does not have two different types.

Well,the stamp shown by oldguy is not Mi.no.65 (inscribed REICHSPOST)
but Mi.No.81 or 97 with the inscription DEUTSCHES REICH !
The description of Type I and Type II is for Mi.no.65 only !
There are no different Types of Mi.nos.81 or 97.

The perforations will determine whether it is Scott 78 or Scott 95
It would appear to be Scott 95.

II - "5" thinner; "M" has distinct serifs.
