A friend in Maryland got this coin in change at a Starbucks this week. Pictures are his. Question is, does anyone know the history of this "T" counterstamp? If anyone knows, it may well be one of our historians on the forum. Thanks!

Thanks, gents. It would be nice to know if some big East Coast retailer had a counterstamp like this, or if it was a small company or an individual. It's a long shot to get an answer, but the "T" is distinctive.

Great find, I'm sure a collector put that out to spark interest in our great hobby!
