Yea I know, this coin has been cleaned and damaged by the counterstamps- but I liked it !

There appears to be some metal damaged opposite some of the areas that were counterstamped on the reverse, and it is a bit bent from the strikes. Overall it has alot of detail and a bit too much shine, but I wanted one with genuine Chinese Chopmarks on it, and I could not let it go for the price. I think there are four unique stamps on this one, possibly five...who knows, maybe more.
1. Between ONE and UNITED
2. Obscuring the DE in TRADE
3. Middle of Eagle's right wing (left wing as viewed)
4. One or more in the center of the Eagle

Have a Look !

Infinite,

The chop marks are accepted by the big three TPG's as normal wear. I've seen them holdered by all three with an assigned grade. That cleaning, on the other hand, is a killer.

Still, a nice example for a collection.
