I have seen reprints of these stamps (also without the value inscription). All the values I have seen were printed in tete-beche columns (quite far apart) and imperforate, examples:
Examples:

In the above design were issued the values (1884: with inscription in French only): 10 c, 25 c, 50 c, 1 F, 1.50 F, 2.50 F, 3 F, 3.50 F, 4 F, 4.50 F, 5 F, 5.50 F, 6 F, 6.50 F, 7 F, 7.50 F, 8 F, 8.50 F, 9 F, 9.50 F, 10 F, 10.50 F, 11 F, 11.50 F, 12 F, 12.50 F, 15 F, 17.50 F, 20 F, 22.50 F, 25 F, 30 F, 35 F, 40 F, 45 F and 50 F (all in the colour blue). Red stamps also seem to have been issued in the same design.

Red stamps also seem to have been issued in the same design.

In the above 'AFFICHES' design were issued the values: 5 c, 6 c, 7 c, 8 c, 9 c, 10 c, 11 c and 12 c, all in red, (two shades were of red were issued), both perforated or imperforate. In 1886 the Flemish inscription 'AANPLAKBRIEVEN' was added in the design (same values, all in red colour, only perforated).
('TAXES FISCALES')
In the above 'TAXES FISCALES' design I have seen 10 c brown (grey underprint), 9 F blue (yellow underprint), 100 F olive (blue underprint) and 500 F red (brown underprint). I don't know when this design was issued.

Many different kinds of overprints exist.

10 c brown 15 c grey 20 c blue 25 c green 50 c red 80 c yellow 1 F lilac 2 F yellow
Forgeries of these stamps exist (made in 1925, sometimes referred to as reprints). Genuine stamps sometimes show part of a watermark, the forgeries never do. The genuine stamps are perforated 15 1/2 x 14 1/2. The forgeries have different perforation (14 or 11, according to 'Focus on forgeries') or are imperforate. The colours shades of the forgeries can be quite different from the genuine stamps. Forged postmarks exist on these forgeries, for example, I think the postmark 'CUREGHEL 14 AOUT 1894' is forged.
