any help is much appreciated.

#2 translates to 2 peoples, 1 war, Hilter/Mussolini, Scott #95-6. 1941.

Libya was a colony/territory of Italy.

#3 They are from the German inflation issues of 1923 leading to the highest denomination ever issued by a government, Scott #315/16, 20/21 = 10,000,000,000 marks

#4 Is a Czechoslovakia Newspaper stamp Scott #P2, in 1920. It appears to to be green not dark green so it is not Scott # P2a.
After indepence from the Austro-Hungarian Empire the 1st stamp designs
seperated Cesko (Czech) & Slovenska (Slovenia). In 1919 new designs changed to Cesko-Slovenska, then hyphen dropped in 1920.
Posta is Czech for Postage.

#1 was so blurry I skip it. But second glance, the stamp is of the Temple of Minerva Scott # 117.

Hope that Helps!
Mike

Thanks Warrehouse!
I have a bunch of stamps from different countries that I receieved from my granfather years ago and have just really started to look at them. I have a couple more questions the ones you ID'd for me, are they pretty common or possibly something of some value? I have a ton of the german ones with all different denominations on them.

I also have a bunch of 1945 hungarian stamps mostly overprints if you know of somewhere on the web I could look to possibly ID them? I havent been able to find any type of Scott(even US) catalog anywhere.

Thanks again!

Nixer, The stamps are not worth alot, but are a good base to start collecting yourself. Those German stamps you mention are likely the 1923
inflation issues, most are pentiful. The Hungarian overprints have alot of possiblities, you could have a find in there. Post them I'll see if I can figure it out.

Enjoy!
Mike

Great thanks.
I started with just a few to see if the pics are going to be good enough to see what they are. I will do my best to desrcibe as well. I hope they are even Hungary, thats what was written in handwriting in the book I found them in.

Most of the other ones I did not add have the overprint of 1945 and some # then pengo. Is there something I should look for in these I have almost 20 more that I did not post. Thanks a lot I really just started to look at this stamp collection this week and have found this really helpful.

First set in order Scott #812, Scott #804 worth about a nickel each.
On #812 the overprint means "domestic letter'
On #804 appreviation for "local letter"

Set 2 are 2 Registration stamps Scott #F1/2 almost a complete set there's one not worth any more then the 1st set.

Set 3 has the 1st stamp Scott #815, is #626 with the overprint. I do not see a listing for #626 being overprinted. Scott #815 value .05.

Set 4, are Scott #669 & 698 in order .03-05

Last set 5, the 1st is Scott #690, the next postage due Scott #J179 worth the same as the rest.
Sorry that none of the ones shown were special. It was fun!

Have Fun & Collect

Regarding your Czech stamp: "Mucha" refers to the designer, Alfons Mucha, who is best known for his illustrations depicting women, many of which were used in ads in the early part of the 20th Century. You've probably seen his stuff and don't even know it. He also designed the first two regular Czech issues, with pictures of Hradcany Castle.

Here's a typical Mucha; most were done in a similar style:
