You're right, Circus, you don't see many cardboard tokens...good or bad condition. I have a few good-fors, and even had a Civil War sutler piece...
I bought this counterstamp several years ago but haven't been able to identify R.J. Soules with any degree of certainty. An added attraction to...
I like these logo stamps, fretboard. I have a small number of them, some attributed, some not. As for the dancing baby...I haven't seen that...
I thought I recognized your counterstamp so did a little digging. It's the logo for Mack Trucks. All trucks had a bulldog emblem as a hood...
You have a nice group of counterstamped coins, jgenn. This one I like particularly. Very artistic designed stamp applied nicely. Very impressive!...
That's an interesting one, fretboard. Looks like a company logo to me. Do you know anything about it? Bruce

Here's one in my collection, Christian. It's counterstamped "Burgkeller", which I assume to be a merchant or business name. I've seen others as...

That's a nice one, longnine. High quality engraving for sure. Bruce
