Does anyone have any thoughts on this one? It has the feel of something that was done more than once, but what do I know?

I won't be able to take a picture of it until later but visually both the 'flower' and the 'J' were definitely stamped. There is smooshage on the reverse.

In 1924 my grandfather was two. He is not a J though.

This is most appropriate for you! Perhaps it could be "justcent"
BTY, my name is Jim, guess I'll need to find one now
