Earle42 Bedrock of the Community United States 10049 Posts	Posted 12/05/2022 12:12 pm Great pics of the older ones! I have to wonder, since engraving takes skill, time, and effort, if that backwards Indian cent was not someone making something like a wax seal stamp using the penny? It would sure make a fancy one. How much squash could a Sasquatch squash if a Sasquatch would squash squash?

It would sure make a fancy one. That's a great thought. Makes total sense. I looked at the reverse and there is no residual solder or even glue to have put some type of handle on it. Would have been hard to use though if that is the case. Check out my counterstamped Lincoln Cent collection: http://goccf.com/t/303507 Report this Post to the Staff

MINT_MARQ Pillar of the Community United States 1000 Posts	Posted 12/06/2022 1:28 pm I saw your thread while looking around in the forum...and thought..... I should have seen if you wanted to buy the masonic counterstamp I just sold on ebay before I offered it there. And then I realized you bought it from me on ebay. Looking forward to seeing that one added to your thread by the end of the week. Report this Post to the Staff

Earle42 Bedrock of the Community United States 10049 Posts	Posted 12/07/2022 6:17 pm Great cutout! But aren't those typically done with a coping saw (non mechanized)? We used to have a member in here who showed how he did this. Not sure who it was and if he is still here or not? How much squash could a Sasquatch squash if a Sasquatch would squash squash?
