    I had to post this because I thought it was interesting and funny. I found this indian bust counterstamped on a 1916 Lincoln Cent. I don't know the purpose of it, but it made me laugh when I saw it in a dealer's case at the GSNA show on Thursday. I had to have it, and for $10 I figured why not. I guess you could call it an IndianLincoln Cent. the same stamp is struck on the obverse, but it's indistinct and the surface is very dark. Does anybody recognize the stamp as a company or organizations logo by any chance? Thanks for looking
