Spence Moderator United States 33739 Posts	Posted 09/29/2025 8:15 pm I would save this one in a 2x2. Haven't seen that counter stamp before. Is that bottom design element a mountain or a submarine?

Spence Moderator United States 33739 Posts	Posted 09/30/2025 8:02 pm @rub, very good question and I'm not sure of the answer. Virtually 100% of the counterstamps that we see are incuse, but yours appears to be in relief. If the coin was a single alloy all the way through then theoretically material could be "chased" from one area to another, but that is not the case for this cent. You for sure have an oddity here.

Rubduck Valued Member United States 175 Posts	Posted 10/01/2025 10:32 pm Should I send it to have it looked at? Or just a booger and keep it for being odd? Report this Post to the Staff
