    picked this coin up today. Had lots of detail left. Anyone have any info on the M counter stamp? 6E913518-BEEF-4FA0-AC08-F78344E5BE32.jpeg C6CDE728-2BF4-441F-82C9-D2D139E24265.jpeg

    Nice, I wish I knew but I don't. Just goes to show you that people were weird back then also. ;)

    The stamp's probably as old as the coin. This crude style is known as American Primitive for obvious reasons. It's surely a merchant stamp...most likely a metalsmith of some sort.

    I see a lot of this type but unfortunately most are unidentified. A great piece and thanks for showing it.
