...and beautiful. Outstanding medal, yarm! Bruce
Nice coin and stamp. Larry. I think you did fine on the price. Bruce
Since i didn't pick up much at the Baltimore show, I found this one on eBay and got it for a decent price. It's now known as my "Baltimore Coin."...
No problem, Paddy. I actually don't like Scotch Whisky or Bourbon so I was only kidding about having a Rob-Roy before dinner. Now bring a bottle...
No Paddy, I was just looking at the reverse of the token where it listed the different brands(?) of pens they made. I was commenting on what I...
That's a beauty, old49er. Very impressive. Bruce
Nice tokens, Paddy! I like the pen manufacturer's piece best. I'll take a Rob-Roy <LOL> Bruce
I'd like to see a photo of it, Larry. Just click on "Upload a File" below, and do it that way. Bruce

Nice group, Paddy. Do you know if the John Howard piece is considered a Conder Token, or does it predate that series. I like the Conders because...
Thanks for the pics, Bill. The second stamp does look a bit "blacksmithy" so you never know. I like those old style stamps very much, even though...
Thanks for the information, Paddy. They would be interesting to collect and research. I wasn't aware of these before. Bruce
Very nice group, Paddy. I've not seen these before. Do you know about when these particular pieces were issued? Bruce
The stamps used on the coins I posted are what's known as prepared punches. The entire word or phrase is cut onto die steel, usually...
Numismatic vandalism, is it? Counterstamps applied to a wildly common nickel that will still be worth a nickel in 20 years, and a cull, heavily...
I saw these on eBay shortly before the election. I collect political counterstamps along with the U.S., Irish, numismatically-related, and...
What is that. Paddy? Is it a medal or token of some kind? Even though I'm not a dragon-slayer kind of guy, I like it very much. Bruce
