Military post in Montenegro

1917 Military post stamps overprinted 'K.U.K. MILIT. VERWALTUNG MONTENEGRO'

  15 h red

vc = very common
c  = common
*  = not so common
** = uncommon

*** = very uncommon

I suspect the next two stamps to be Fournier forgeries:

The above two stamps have the same cancel 'K.U.K. ETTAPENPOSTAMT CETINJE -1 III 17' as can be found in 'The Fournier Album of Philatelic Forgeries'. I presume Fournier forged the overprint and the cancel only, not the basic stamp.

Fiscal stamp of Montenegro, overprinted ' K. u. k. Militar- Verwaltung in Montenegro'. I have seen the values 30 pa red and 40 pa violet (value and overprint in black on both stamps).
