Bryan1315 Bedrock of the Community United States 14454 Posts	Posted 02/24/2011 4:57 pm I think the states Cents were the most popular as they were made in sets with every state counter-stamped on them and would be purchased in a frame. I think it was one of those mail order things where you get like 10 for $1.00 and they would send you the frame and 10 more for so much until you had the whole set. I know my Grandfather had one of those frames with the whole set in them but don't remember where it said they were from. These things have been counterstamnped with all kinds of things, some commemorating special things and some just for the heck of it in the back yard. I think the halloween,santa,heart, and US Flag coins came from another set about holidays. I have seen an bunny and leprechaun for Easter and St Patricks day that came from this set also. There is a sports set that has baseball,basketball,bowling and others in that set, so there are quite a few sets with these types of things on them Here are a few others Appolo Landing Bicentennial Valentines Day Kennedy/Lincoln Report this Post to the Staff

eaglefoot Pillar of the Community United States 6326 Posts	Posted 02/24/2011 6:16 pm There are some "Free Mason" counterstamped ones out there too. I've got a Kennedy stamped Cent and a Kennedy stamped Half (with a little stamped portrait of Kennedy)......and a couple C.S. Cent States too. Never could chuck mine back into the wild either ! Valueless as they may be.....there's just something neat about them ! ... Report this Post to the Staff
biggfredd Rest in Peace United States 9104 Posts	Posted 02/25/2011 01:17 am We've had half a dozen different. Our wholesale cost was $3 or so a roll. They can be engraved (laser or otherwise) or punched. Punched will show a flat spot on the reverse, engraved won't. Report this Post to the Staff
biggfredd Rest in Peace United States 9104 Posts	Posted 02/25/2011 01:35 am There's also a repousse (3d) popout version. A raised bubble the size of the O in "one". I only recall that in Masonic emblems. Report this Post to the Staff
