This is a deceptive postal forgery of the 10 c value. In the
genuine stamps, in the line below the 'CE' of 'CENT', the
engraver left his initials. These are missing in the above
forgery.
Postal forgeries of the 5 c value, it also exists imperforate.

The error 5 c blue has been forged by chemical means.
Postal forgery:
In the above postal forgery, the 'S' and 'T' of 'IMPUESTO' are not joined (they should be in the genuine stamps. The ear is too large and the inscription below the neck reads 'NLIA' instead of 'JULIA'. This forgery has been described in 'The Postal Forgeries of the World' by H.G. Leslie Fletcher. If my information is correct, this forgery was used in Barcelona.

Postal forgery of the 15 c value
A postal forgery exists of the 15 c value. In the genuine stamps the 'S' and second 'E' of the word 'PESETA' are touching each other at the top. In this postal forgery, they don't.
