So counter stamps are neat but are they worth anything aside from being cool to look at?
Counter-Stamped

I found this one last month, it looks like a family saying grace... with a door way a kid on a hobby-horse(?) in the background.

Anyone ever seen this type before?
Am I right or is it something else?
Is there any real collector value to counter stamped coins?

If there were, I'd be manufacturing them by the thousands.

I think they're neat, but I don't generally keep them unless it's something really cool/significant. The only counterstamp I have in my collection is a 2006 Freemason penny that I found in circulation a few years back.
