Hi all

Trying to ID the countries for these 5 revenues. I have ideas, but thought I'd post them here for folks to see and ponder.

The first one bears the coat of arms of Haiti.

The last one seems to be an Ottaman Empire stamp with an Albanian overprint.

Peru

The 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,

A cigarillo is a cigarette in Spain. If you want to know more about the la Fábrica de tobacos de Valencia, Spain.

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."

Cigarillo in english is not the same as spanish (catellano).

https://es.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cigarrillo

In Spanish-speaking countries, as well as in the Philippines, "cigarrillo" is a cigarette.

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.
