Your Boyd stamp is a nice one Frank and is listed in Brunk. There are about 30 examples known, most on Quarters or Half Dollars. This one isn't...
[ATTACH] Great stuff guys! You know I love these things. Here's my latest. This is the jeweler's mark of Charles W. Wendell who setup his...
I read an article not too long ago about the crazy things people used Large Cents for, other than money. As you say SC, these coins were unpopular...
