Robie 13,

These are from the 1950 series. They are listed in Scott as #551 (2 Lire) and #556(15 Lire).

The following link shows these stamps and may also be helpful for identifying worldwide stamps.

I should note that the above link does not use Scott Numbering system.

A recent issue of the American Philatelist had a feature story on this series of stamps with in-depth information on motivation, themes, and production. I realize that journal probably isn't easy to find in Slovakia, but other readers of this thread might want to look at it. It gave me a new appreciation for this series and what the country was going through in the postwar reconstruction period.

You might notice that these stamps have been perfinned with the initials C I, standing for Credito Italiano, which was a major Italian commercial bank.
