Nagyszeben 1919 / 31 different stamps
A search on the internet produced a paragraph that includes the following: "Some examples of municipalities that are included in the category of locals issues are: Zombor, Ada, Nagyszeben, Kluj, Pancsova, Perlak, Baranya III, Skalica, Lajtabansag (Western Hungary) and several others" Since your stamps are postmarked Pancsova and Nagyszeben, 1923-4, I'm guessing that the overprints could be local only. Both the overprint and the dates indicated that these are stamps of the royal restoration, i.e., the regime of Miklos Horthy.

Part of Transylvania was constantly a problem for Romania and Hungary. Two wars and dictators created a world of hate and pieces of land moving back and forth! Recently one overprinted stamp from Hungary by Romanian authorities in 1945, made a nice debate on this site.
Seems that Hungary did the same thing on Hungarian stamps, making another nightmare with local issues.
Ok, I am waiting patiently to get more inputs on these stamps. Virgil

Sounds like a very interesting area to specialize in. I have no idea of the prices one would expect to pay, but the historical aspect sounds fascinating.

Hi George,
Thank you for getting involved. Interesting piece, I missed it!
Interesting is that the overprint is shown in Michel, but nothing else. No stamps are shown.
Thank you for the discussion.
To Benque. As I mentioned before, Romanian and Hungarian stamps from 1916 till 1945 can foolish an uneducated buyer. To get involved there is a need of deep knowledge, a lot of real stamps for comparison, time and patience and money. Some stamps are not easy accessible, they are part of serious collections.
