The stamp on the far left I recently purchased and was sold as a #3. The middle stamp perhaps is a 9a and the right stamp perhaps a 9? Any help would be appreciated since no watermarks on any and the only one with a partial date is on the left.
Thanks

All three of those look to be the engraved issues, not the lithographed.

Good information/website link. Very helpful. I will be using that as I look through a few more of these. I inherited a Hungarian collection and nothing was identified, so some are hard to distinguish. Thanks again
