Dalmatia

Dalmatia continued to use the Trento and Trieste corona overprints until they were replaced in 1921 by similar stamps but with the overprint in a sans-serif typeface, a common cause of confusion. The exception was the 1 corona on 1 lire, which used a 'una corona' overprint from 1st May 1919 rather than the '1 corona' used previously.

una corona on 1 lire, with an example of the 'small a in una' variety Sassone 1 and 1b.

50 centesimi di corona Sassone 5.

5 corona This stamp is usually badly centered Sassone 7.

Lire 1,20 di corona Express. This stamp was not issued as the phrase 'Lire di corona' was incorrect. Sassone 2.
