Pertinax Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2134 Posts	Posted 08/16/2014 8:30 pm While showing this token to a friend today I realised that what I had thought was a gouge is actually a countermark on the obverse. Rev: Obv: Countermark Is this a recognised countermark, if so, to whom is it attributed, please ? Is it common or rare ? Report this Post to the Staff

Alexer Pillar of the Community Canada 2632 Posts	Posted 08/17/2014 11:35 pm Hard to tell from the pic but if I where to guess, I'd say it looks very similar to "masonic free masons" but worn out. Just a guess. https://goccf.com/t/98449 Report this Post to the Staff
Pertinax Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2134 Posts	Posted 08/18/2014 12:06 pm Pacificoin, If I had a reference work, I would have used it first before posing a question. I don't know what you mean by 'Brunk'. What qualities and attributes are you wanting by Quote: Need way better pix ? Does this help ? Report this Post to the Staff
Pertinax Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2134 Posts	Posted 08/18/2014 12:08 pm pennyman007, Thanks for the linked topic. I hope the previous picture shows better that it's not a mason's mark. Report this Post to the Staff

Pertinax Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2134 Posts	Posted 08/18/2014 2:29 pm pennyman007, 2 specimens doesn't mean it's common, though that's not my question. What is your underlying coin, please ? Report this Post to the Staff
