Can you show us what you believe is the oldest contemporary counter-stamped coin in your collection?

"...in the year 1909 and were accululated..."
Looks like my typing!
Good read!

Actually, the word "accululate" is a real word and correct in this context. Though no longer in common usage, the verb means to "bring together and then immediately disperse", which fits this situation perfectly.

Thanks Coinfrog. I love vocabulary. Don't know how that word got by me without me looking it up. Just went to look it up myself and had a hard time finding it. It was in a slang dictionary of all places.  Reason I looked it up was because I was curious how to properly pronounce it. I know the image I posted of the definition has a speaker symbol by the word but it wouldn't work on my phone.

I've gotten a few counterstampers recently. I only got through 83 of the 162 pages before I gave up looking to see if there are duplicates of the "ND", "Our Prom" and "Water SA" coins. Couple unique ones here. SA Water is a the South African Water Company.

Those are cool. I know I don't have the "OUR PROM" one.

Wow! For you not to have one of mine is impressive. How about the South African Water Company? You have that one?
