colonialjohn Pillar of the Community United States 1757 Posts	Posted 03/13/2014 9:28 pm NO OPINION from my corner - but check Grove as it may be listed in this book or a similar looking mark may link it to a Hacienda source ... does not register with me as to the West Indies ...

Lucky Cuss Pillar of the Community United States 4883 Posts	Posted 03/14/2014 3:28 pm I wonder if it could be a Java countermark, the size and style are not dissimilar. Here's a previous (2010)thread on one of those: http://www.coincommunity.com/forum/...PIC_ID=64021 Colligo ergo sum Report this Post to the Staff
colonialjohn Pillar of the Community United States 1757 Posts	Posted 03/14/2014 3:43 pm Interesting thread on the Java countermark - but my feeling is this- if you can not tie a countermark/counterstamp to a standard reference with an EXACT plate match then its SUSPECT - as this one appears to be ... unless of course some official journal has confirmed the counterstamp/countermark REAL. I see no reference cited in this Java thread ... other than real neat - get it slabbed ... slab achieves only a grading perspective ... not authenticity ... unless there is a KM# to this piece?
