@ ZTriPs .... No Offense taken. You see one thing, I see another .... I'm not totally dismissing your thought. I'm simply offering my opinion, based on experience, what I've seen and not seen. I regard myself as a student of counterstamps and numismatics in general. Forever learning, I am. If I ever do encounter this symbol, used as the letter "C" in a counterstamp, rest assured, I'll return and eat Crow, with a Capital C. Meanwhile, omega suits me fine.

 to the CCF, 2TriPs While yours is an astute catch and comparison, I doubt that our poster's coin bears the same "Grenada" mark. The Grenada stamp, along with accompanying marks, I believe, was used on silver coins in order to redenominate them. The resemblance of this particular "G" is remarkably similar to the omega sign!

I got this from my mom's on my most recent visit. We couldn't remember where it came from, but I said I would take it.  It's quite possible it came from the gift shop of the Sixth Floor Museum.

My recent finds including one referencing the quarantine Safe bet all done by the same person except the V. I found three of them in consecutive weeks including the Wanna Shag and Get Lei'd and started to think some horny individual was targeting me.
