You're right! -- The top one is Japanese Occupation of Netherlands Indies. It's actually listed in Scott, N31. My oldish 2017 catalog prices it at $0.40 unused. (It's part of a set of 11.)
The bottom one is a Japanese revenue. I'm not good off the top of my head on telling you exactly which type, but it resonates with me as not being uncommon.
Edited to add: If you don't have the "N" volume of a Scott handy, the issue year for that occupation set is 1943.
Again, off the top of my head, I don't have a good feeling for the revenue stamp, but I think it would be 20th century, before the end of WW2. (But I could be really wrong about this.)

Thanks for the information on these stamps. I ran across quite few revenue stamps from several countries when I bought this small collection. I also picked up a few Japanese occupation issues, most of them for the Philippines. Stay Safe and Take Care, Big Daddy Dave
