If the stamping is done by a private individual or business for the purpose of decoration, advertising etc then it is a counterstamp. If it is done by a government to re-value the coin or it mark it as being acceptable for use in a different area/country, then it is called a countermark. And if it is done by an individual or business for the purpose of guaranteeing genuineness or value it can be called a chopmark. Report this Post to the Staff
