Sažetak

Micro-Raman spectroscopy and X ray emission spectroscopy induced using radioactive source have been applied to analyze samples important for the history of Rijeka, Croatian port on the Adriatic Sea. In this paper we will present study of thirty-three original Hungarian postage stamps issued for Rijeka and overprinted with the word FIUME in 1918, after the World War I and the one-Lira banknotes(one original brown banknote and four trial prints: brown, blue, green and dark green)from Economy bank for Rijeka, Istria and Slovenian Littoral(1945–1947), the so-called Jugolire. This investigation was carried out to determine the differences between the original machine, original hand-made and fake overprints FIUME and to compare the pigments used on original banknote from circulation with the pigments on the trial prints.
