I kindly ask if anyone can give me information on these tax stamps who I believe are Austrian. Thank you. 
The 6 kreuzer is on a document dated 1857 from Venice and therefore from Lombardy and Veneto state, but I could not find it in the Lombardo Veneto catalogue. I think the second is German. |

Hi Rex
according to 2019 Barefoot, these are General Duty and most likely 1854 issue # 6, or 6a if the leaf print is also on the back. CV listed is 20 or 35 EU (6a). These did not have individual watermarks,only the sheet watermark, so at best you would see a portion. Perforations vary and can be compound.
My Barefoot does not include anything for Venice...

What I collect: I collect world wide up to 1965 with several specialty albums added due to volume of material I have acquired. At this point I am focused on Canada and British America. I am always on the lookout for stamps and covers with postmarks from communities in Queens County, Nova Scotia. I do list various goods including stamps occasionally on eBay as hdm50

I think the second is German. Rex, the second revenue is, as you say, German. Specifically, it is used for Bills of Exchange with a value up to 200 marks, the value of the stamp is 10 pfennigs. I give an explanation of a Bill of Exchange here. Appears to be issued between Germany and France. Daniel |
