Could be my imagination and the amount of corrosion but it seems there are possibly letters from another coin at top of obverse and a design of some kind from another coin around the shield on the reverse. Someone tell me there's a Nova Constellatio under this NJ lol. Edited by Bdlc 11/28/2025 12:14 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34396 Posts	Posted 11/28/2025 4:59 pm An interesting piece @bdlc. I'm hoping to see you update this thread when you get a more definitive opinion on what was overstruck to create this.

ExoGuy Pillar of the Community United States 4415 Posts	Posted 12/03/2025 4:56 pm Looks like a partial c/s to me ..... "J.O W ...." (tiny letters, under 2mm) Report this Post to the Staff
Bdlc Valued Member United States 113 Posts	Posted 12/03/2025 5:21 pm A "Counter Stamp" I'm guessing is what you mean by c/s. I don't really see that, interesting. Report this Post to the Staff
