ExoGuy Pillar of the Community United States 4422 Posts	Posted 11/15/2012 11:19 am Sorry.... Nothing to contribute, regarding the counterstamped coin. Unless simple initials are set in relief, akin to a known silversmith's hallmark, they're virtually impossible to attribute. Fun items to own, nevertheless. Report this Post to the Staff
mysilveryears Pillar of the Community United States 1897 Posts	Posted 11/15/2012 1:01 pm Excessively worn = honorable service in commerce but without a place in my collection. Deliberately damaged = downright depressing; a dis-service to any coin. I have worse examples than these... just waiting for the right opportunity to give them a more appreciative home.

mysilveryears Pillar of the Community United States 1897 Posts	Posted 11/15/2012 5:58 pm Quote: 1844/81? ...there is such a thing? i think what looks like a bit of extra metal by the 4 is a result of PMD. These two were found some time ago by my sharp-eyed brother in a plowed field while surface hunting for artifacts: '10' of the date is clearly readable, but not much else. This one has us stumped, datewise.. 'ONE CENT' is clear enough, but the wreath seems odd: [contrast enhanced to bring up detail] Report this Post to the Staff
ExoGuy Pillar of the Community United States 4422 Posts	Posted 11/15/2012 6:55 pm Here's an 1844/81 on ebay to compare: http://www.ebay.com/itm/1844-81-Bra...em337dbee263 ... check out the pics Note the curvature of an 8, adjacent to the top right of the first 4 in 1844. It looks in your pic as if there's something there. I just couldn't discern if it might be that variety, but it appears to be that something's there, in that spot. Perhaps it is PMD?

mysilveryears Pillar of the Community United States 1897 Posts	Posted 11/15/2012 7:45 pm ..how 'bout that. The overdate features are easy to see on that coin. Thanks for the link. Mine definitely does not have the curve, or the two prongs on the second 4. Also I am not set up for photos of much better quality than the ones I posted. Report this Post to the Staff
