The one with the printed numbers on the back are likely control numbers. Two of the pencil looks like Scott # and possible value at the time it was mark. The others I think were simply written on.

To add to this many old time dealers wrote there own code on the backs of stamps. May not apply to these but might help on others.

None of them are expertizer marks. And yes, the printed numbers on the back of the stamps from Spain are control numbers.
