That must be the most expensive counterstamp on a modern coin.

Despite the bad pictures it looks like a popup coin.

Wow. Funny, I just posted one of those on my Lincoln Cent Counterstamp thread (below) that I'd found on ebay. Paid less than $15. That's nuts.

$75 for a counterstamped coin? Insanity!

I found this one on the web. It's an error... in judgment.  If you want to see more of these, search "Popout Kennedy" or "Popout Lincoln" You may want to put in the coin type too.

Or if you like classic coins over modern. Why not punch out your old Morgans?  They call these Repousse coins. Meaning: repousse ADJECTIVE (of metalwork) hammered into relief from the reverse side.

Here's a Liberty popout reverse. It's an image I found on the web.
