Only thing I cold think of is a snowflake but they have 6 sides not 8.

Could be an 8-spoked asterisk or possibly (less likely) the chaos symbol.

My first thought was an owl. Then after looking at it a little while I saw a tulip.

I agree with the tulip assessment.

Nice additions!

Not too presumptuous of me to say this is the sun, moon and a ?hat? Though I think the picture might be 90 degrees off.
Try as I might I cannot find this combination of symbols associated with any Masonic group. (The reverse of this LMC has the common square and compass pressed into it.)

The sun and moon are popular symbols in Masonry:

Something in older Masonry is an apron in that shape. Modern Masonic aprons look like modern aprons.

But that would put the image of the coin 180 degrees off.

My guess is a door/archway to keep in line with the Masonic theme.

I think this a rare counterstamp from a secret Druid cult!

I dunno, maybe a tribute to the banana god (three images up).

The masked one - I got a chuckle out of that.

This is a two headed eagle counter stamp with the number 32 between them. I have posted counter stamps with this design before but never in repousse like this. . .
