40 c postage due stamp of the French Colonies with a Koné cancel
Most likely Fournier forgeries of 2 F
and 5 F postage due stamp of the French Colonies with a forged
"NOUVELLE CALEDONIE 2E/3 SEPT 92 NOUMEA" cancel.
Some more Fournier forgeries with very wide margins and a
"CALEDONIE NOUMEA ? JUL 04" cancel.
5 c forgery with a forged "NOUVELLE CALEDONIE NOUMEA"
cancel. See also: French colonies,
postage due stamps, primitive forgery type 2.
Forgeries, all with the same cancel "NOUVELLE CALEDONIE
2E/26 FEVR 92" and a triangle cancel, France Postage Due Stamps, forgery type 7
(Oneglia?)
Here a genuinely used French Colonies stamp, used in
"NOUVELLE CALEDONIE NOUMEA", but with a forged
perforation pretending to be a rare French postage due stamp.
5 c blue 10 c brown 15 c green 30 c red 50 c lilac 60 c brown on brown 1 F red on brown 2 F brown
A pair of 30 c stamps, the right one with a missing "I"
in "TENAIRE" (all values exist with this error).
I noticed a lot of these stamps have the cancel "3 NOV 03" (cancelled to order, or first day of issue?).

This might be a forgery, in my view the basic stamp is also
forged (the "2" and the text "FRANCS A
PERCEVOIR" is placed too far to the right?). The word
"TAXE" is in thinner letters.

In 1926 some parcel stamps were issued, by overprinting postage stamps with "Colis Postaux". The following values were issued: 50 c on 5 F, 1 F, 2 F. In 1930 a second set was issued (printed on the stamps with the new design) in the values: 50 c, 1 F and 2 F.
(Example: 50 c on 5 F of the 1926 set)
40 c red and green (RR) 50 c violet and brown (RR)
Another set of 26 stamps exists with a similar overprint in black or red (but the aeroplane is different); these stamps were sold from 4 to 22 December 1933 in Paris for stamp collectors.

Inscription "Nlle Caledonie Correspondance Militaire"
In 1893 some stamps were issued for military use,
they have a French flag in the design. These stamps were issued
mainly for stamp collectors and can be considered bogus.Various
designs in various colours exist.
According to Le Postillon Revue Philatelique of 1910, page 98,
https://gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/bpt6k9802917r/f1n24.pdf?download=1
the numbers inside the design range from "1" to
"25" in various colors, which gives a large amount of
different stamps. They are called "Les petits drapeaux de
lieutenant-colonel Delauney" there.
Forged French Colonies stamps with forged "NOUVELLE CALEDONIE 2E/26 FEVR ??" cancels, these forgeries were probably made by the stamp forger Oneglia.
