I know the counterstamp probably kills the value but it would drive me a little nuts knowing a large silver coin was slowly wearing down in my pocket.
Also, I love how the word "like" can mean both similar to and have feelings for.

Quite a few tears ago, my wife and I were selling Morgan dollars on ebay, buying rolls on the cheap and selling by one and two at a time. We noticed some of the counterstamped and marked up ones would sell for higher than others. We didn't get it then nor now. But we enjoyed the extra money! |

A pocket piece would probably wear down the stamp and make it less pronounced - it does not look like it was struck too deep. I am a self-confessed coin stamper, I hope I bring a smile (or an incredulous grimace) to some CRHer's face in the future  |

It has a nice patina. Which would vanish after a bit of pocket wear. Now all you need is Dick & Harry to have the full set.  |

I have a punch on my tool bench, and I sign all my coins just in case they get stolen That's a great idea! I'm going to get a set of teeny weeny little punches so I can put my full SS# on each of my coins! |

Like, like, like! If you make it your pocket piece, throw it is a 2x2 or an airtight. I did the former with the "J" Buck (a.k.a JIke). I do not carry him around all the time, but sometimes.  It is a tough call, replacing the matte proof Kennedy avatar. However, if there was ever a strong candidate, this is it. |

I frequent the same shop and have always had great, honest service from this family, albeit not quite as great as Tom's recent visit.
