I've seen these stamps overprinted with 'BOLLO' and further surcharged. They are fiscal stamps.
Deceptive forgeries of these stamps exist. I presume the next stamp is such a forgery, the 'O' of 'POSTALE" is much more elliptic than in the genuine stamps. These forgeries exist with overprint 'Governo Provvisorio'.
Forgery?

Two types of forgeries exist of the ship and gate design (possibly also of the other types). If anybody has more information, please contact me!
3 L forgery, if I'm well informed the 'O' of 'POSTE' is more like
an ellipse in this forgery and this is the case for a whole set
of forgeries (all values in all designs including forged
overprints).
Most likely these forgeries were made by the forger Imperato (see V.E.Tyler, Focus on Forgeries). A forgery of the ship design is described in Tyler's book.

Forgeries exist of these stamps (including overprints). The head of the person under the 'E' of 'FIUME' clearly printed in the genuine stamps, it is blur in the forgeries.
