1851 Large Cent With Countserstamp + Tombstone Arizona Tok.

@ mack... thanks and I have all the token info now.. Lets just hope I get lots of guys who want the large cent

Brunk (2003)and Rulau (2004) each listed two varieties. One variety simply has a D.H. HILLIARD counterstamp on an 1834 large cent. The second variety shows D.H. HILLIARD / CORNISH / NH counterstamps on an 1820 large cent. This 1851 specimen is the second known example with the town, but others may exist. The fact that this specimen is dated 1851, being the latest date, these coins were most likely stamped that year or not long thereafter. The 1850's decade was the heyday of counterstamping, so to speak, when the practice was most prevalent. As more counterstamps surface over the years, more knowledge follows.
