Perfect Error Valued Member United States 477 Posts	Posted 09/04/2018 3:18 pm Stamped to a "T" Just thought I would share this one and was found in a Bank Roll awhile ago. The "T" Stamp Indentation went right through to the Obverse side of Lincolns Head, Face, Neck, Bust and under his Chin! 1961-P Lincoln Cent Report this Post to the Staff

Mark1959 Pillar of the Community 7234 Posts	Posted 09/30/2018 4:14 pm I'm liking the older ones. Actually with that song (Elektronomia - Fire) your post would qualify for Sprue's jukebox page in GD Edited by Mark1959 09/30/2018 4:16 pm Report this Post to the Staff
ExoGuy Pillar of the Community United States 4421 Posts	Posted 09/30/2018 4:27 pm Here's an older counterstamp from the early-mid 1850's, when Spanish coins were still legal tender in the U.S. The host coin is a 1797 two real or "two bit" piece, being the equivalent of a U.S. quarter, thereabouts. This coin was minted in Mexico. The Meschutt brothers owned five coffee houses in the NY City area. They were, in effect, the "Starbuck's" of their day. As counterstamps go, this is one of the "classic" issues. Dave Bowers collected many of these and wrote about the issue. Report this Post to the Staff

Hibernias Valued Member United States 100 Posts	Posted 09/30/2018 7:20 pm I got this George II halfpenny in a lot of mixed coins off ebay a few years ago, and I've been meaning to post it here for almost as long. I'm pretty sure it's a love token because it's been bent, though I can't imagine that trying to bend a copper coin that thick would be any fun.
