Looks like a cookie cutter Christmas tree.

It took me a minute to see the miner. Not sure I would have had you not mentioned what it was. Very interesting Christmas Tree. It would be fun to have tools precise enough to make a stamp like this.
How much squash could a Sasquatch squash if a Sasquatch would squash squash?

Good call on the cookie cutter Christmas tree stamp JBuck. I

I agree Earle. That was a tricky one.

Funny Hondo. But he loves zinc.

Thanks E&V.

Royal order of Jesters counter stamp. The rotund guy with the crown is called Billikin...

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roy...r_of_Jesters

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billiken


Quote:
"Whereas most Masonic bodies are dedicated to charity, The Royal Order of Jesters is a fun 'degree,' with absolutely no serious intent. The motto, 'Mirth is King,' is sufficient to give voice to the purpose of the organization. The Royal Order of Jesters believe that there are times, after work and dedication to family and mankind when everyone should remember to laugh and appreciate the good work one has done."

Very interesting, chafemasterj - that type of Masonic counterstamp is new to me.
Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures

1913 LWC counter stamped on both the obverse and reverse with the Sword Brand logo. Sword Brand being a trademarked blade style for the Camillus Cutlery Company...

A quote from the fascinating Wikipedia page about the company.


Quote:
Camillus produced the Hand Made #89 Rancher Indian Delrin Stag Stockman 3 Triple Blade Pocket Knife with Sword Brand Blades in the 1970s. Highly collectible today. |Knife image provided by Darren Spitzenberger
