Here's a counterstamped 1838 Large Cent to spice things up a bit. This counterstamp, T.H. WITHERBY / CAST STEEL / WARRANTED, was applied to edge tools.

THOMAS H. WITHERBY WAS A MAKER OF EDGE TOOLS. HE'S LISTED AS SUCH IN MILLBURY, MASSACHUSETTS IN 1849. IT APPEARS THAT A SON BY THE SAME NAME SUCCEEDED HIM, AND OTHER PRODUCTS WERE ADDED. THIS IS THE RULAU SPECIMEN, AND IT WAS MIS-LISTED IN THE 2015 KRUEGER AUCTION, LOT 1734. THE HOST COIN IS DOUBLY STAMPED ON THE OBVERSE AND LIKELY CAUSED THE LISTING ERROR. THIS IS THE RULAU PLATE COIN, ILLUSTRATED ON PAGE 428. LISTED IN THE DIRECTORY OF AMERICAN TOOL MAKERS AS A MAKER OF DRAWKNIVES AND CHISELS, WITHERBY IS DESCRIBED AS AMERICA'S MOST FAMOUS EDGE TOOL MAKER. THIS SPECIMEN IS THE ONLY ONE RECORDED TO DATE. THE DOUBLE, OVER-STAMP SUGGESTS THAT WITHERBY SIMPLY TESTED HIS MARK ON THIS HOST COIN, AND IT WAS NOT INTENDED TO CIRCULATE AS AN ADVERTISEMENT OF HIS PRODUCTS; THIS, AS WERE A GREAT MANY COUNTERSTAMPS. (capital letters are used in my database)

Edit: Thanks to Cipster, I corrected my database typo! This counterstamp appears to have been used when Witherby was in Millbury as opposed to his later location in Connecticut. I now note that "Milbury" was misspelled in the 1849 New England Business Directory.

ExoGuy very interesting read on your counterstamped coin. The Milbury, CT location caught my eye as I live in CT. A Google search of his name took me to the Davistown Museum (www.davistownmuseum.org) in Maine. They have examples of his tools there and it also said that Witherby Tool Co. was in Millbury, MA and Winsted, CT. Just wanted to pass that along.
