moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 12/16/2017 11:02 am We've seen some really interesting Lincoln C/s of late. I'm hoping someone is building a collection of these weird little fellows. Report this Post to the Staff
chafemasterj Pillar of the Community United States 6514 Posts	Posted 12/16/2017 11:35 am Hey moxking... I think I'm kind of a black sheep of coin collecting. I've been putting together a collection of counterstamped Lincoln Cents for a few years. They're fun and sometimes odd. I'm looking forward to sharing from my collection here on the forum over the coming years. Is there anyplace here on the ccf that I can post that I'm interested in purchasing counterstamps from other members?

I recall seeing penny stamp machines when I was a kid, are these from those or companies? I've always been of the belief that the Lincoln counterstamps are solely done with a small hand stamp punch and a hammer. I've made some myself and discovered that this requires a bit of technique to wind up with a nicely done specimen.
