That has a brass look to it, Bill. Nice token by the way. Bruce
Nice additions,jester! The picture of the Fuld 133 makes it look copper to me too. The difference between the look of toned brass and copper is...
That's a great set of companion pieces, Bill. It really adds to the whole history of the issuer. The whole set would fetch a pretty penny if you...
Counterstamps on CWT's are pretty scarce, jester. You're right about Brunk listing it, but no information on him. His example is on an 1801 Large...
Septagonal, heptagonal...both words are disturbing. Just use a word that everyone can agree is wonderful, even if it has nothing to do with coins....
Thanks, Christian. Bruce
Thanks for the information, Christian. I always knew the "d" indicated penny, but wasn't aware of its origin. The use of the ligature is also...
Counterstamps are an interesting branch of numismatics to me, Victor. Good to see you on the forum. Bruce
I'm thinking a WS69, Chief. I think I see a little rub on her right knee.<lol> All kidding aside, a nice wood for sure. I used to collect wooden...
Good to hear from you again, my friend. Sorry about the misunderstanding, but I don't know if he's still with us. I haven't heard that he passed...

Brunk lists a "G. Noble" counterstamp on an 1845 Large Cent, so this may be your coin. The "C" could have been mistaken for a "G" or it's just...
Here's my Demuth stamp, Bill, with added initials. I'd love to be able to figure out who P.H. is. Bruce[ATTACH]
I've seen a few of these pieces on auction sites, and thought briefly about bidding, but never did. Thanks for showing yours. Bruce
Beautiful token, jester. I always liked the off-metal pieces, especially in white metal. Bruce
As some of you know, I have a great interest in collecting and researching counterstamped and graffiti coins relating to the Irish Troubles....
The GSNA show is a decent sized one, but no more than 70 or 80 dealers, Bill. The good thing for me is that it attracts dealers I don't always see...
No info, jester, just the one listed piece. I'll take a look around for you when I get the chance and see if I can find anything. Bruce
I was happy to get the Devins & Bolton stamp after all these years, Bill. Unfortunately, I didn't find anything else at the show, so this one was...
