I have 3 sets of 11 each with black, green and red overprints.
Any insights would be appreciated.

The red blob looks like a coat of arms of terrible quality. Those may be from previously occupied countries, or local cancellations, or fantasies.

What do the others look like?

Edit: Philastempel does not return any cancellations for "NEUWELT." In Polish, it would be Nowy Swiat, but it is doubtful any of those are the source.

"Neuwelt" is listed on the stampsx website. It's in Sachsen (Saxony). Cancellation is good. I have never seen the overprint before. My guess would be someone playing around with a stamped ink set.

The backstamp has to be a fake. The backstamp was used to expertise postmarks of Inflation stamps of the late 1920's. The Germania stamps are from 1900-1918.
