BobbyV New Member United States 25 Posts	Posted 09/22/2015 6:29 pm Thanks, y'all. I might try that. Dohcollector, thanks for pointing out the counterstamps--I didn't know what that was, so I looked it up. Very interesting; now I want to learn more about counterstamped coins.

BobbyV New Member United States 25 Posts	Posted 09/22/2015 10:56 pm These are a bit closer up: One of them from before is not in these pics, as I took it out because I noticed the date was from the late 1700s (and I know this is specifically for ancient and medieval coins).
