CONSTITUTION:A light from a mail 9 is made incident to a photoelectric conversion section 13 and a binary coded signal is outputted from a terminal R for blue color and from a terminal GB for blue or green colors. An output signal at the terminal R is inputted to a special derivery mail postage stamp reading circuit 14 and an output signal of the terminal GB is inputted to an ordinary mail postage stamp reading circuit 15. A counter 19 counts the number of ordinary mail postage stamps and display of charge amount such as charge amount print.
