The first one bears the coat of arms of Haiti.
The last one seems to be an Ottaman Empire stamp with an Albanian overprint. |

The second one is King Alfonso XII on a fiscal stamp for the company of cigarettes of Valencia. |

This link might help explain the fourth from the left. Peru https://goscf.com/t/39895The last one on the right is Turkish. Don't know what the eagle overprint means. I'm sure others will. |

I believe a cigarrillo is a small cigar, not a cigarette. If so, this may be a Cuban revenue stamp. There is a Valencia on Cuba,

So the cigarillo is a SPAIN stamp... wasn't sure as I figured the king pictured ruled over other countries as well.
"Cigarillo --- A cigarillo is a short, narrow cigar. Unlike cigarettes, cigarillos are wrapped in tobacco leaves or brown tobacco-based paper. Cigarillos are smaller than regular cigars but usually larger than cigarettes, thus similar in size and composition to small panatela sized cigars, cheroots and traditional blunts." |

HI folks... adding one more stamp to this thread! This one came in a small lot and I plan on giving it a new home. BUT I need to ID it before I can list it! I think it is from Spain, maybe Mexico, but am not sure. So far I haven't been able to find a similar one online. Can anyone pass on some info? JD  |

It is the Spanish Coat of Arms. Sello can mean stamp but I believe it can also mean pill/ capsule. |
