These seem to be related to Montenegro, but I have not been able to figure out exactly what they are. The stamps bearing portraits all have veritcal overprints (the other stamps do not). See link below for even larger image (1.2 MB).

Any information would be welcome. Also, catalog numbering, catalog values, approximate market values, etc. would be great.

Thanks.

Amazing! I just discovered that somebody else recently posted a very similar question. What a small world.

It looks like I have the complete group, except for one of the vertical format "crown" stamps, according to the image that Timm was kind to show.

However, in that thread nobody mentioned anything about value. I understand that they are unissued, or Cinderellas, or even bogus. (In order to be fakes they would have to be a fake of something that exists; "bogus" is something that does not exist until somebody made it pretending that they were actually something.) However, no matter the classification, they have some value. Any idea how much?

Thanks.

They don't appear to have much value. Here's a set of 26 which recently sold on ebay for $12.99:
