I'm just seeing the one stamp, C-B-D. The "Auburn" with a period. I was interested in the engraved (?) letters or initials also present on the...
I couldn't find any listed silversmiths named Auburn, but I think the stamp might be a reference to a city name such as Auburn, NY. In my search...
It's also listed by Brunk but with no attribution. Yours is a new example C-B-D. They're presently known pieces on other Large Cents... 1794,...
I found a reference to a Superior Lime Co. in Grand Rapids, Michigan in the early 1900s (1906, 1909, 1912). Homer L. Zipp founded the company in...
It's genuine, alurid. Too bad the name is so common or we might be able to attribute it someday. This one isn't listed in Brunk. Bruce

Please see my conversation. Just posted.

Agreed, Ken, never saw one that was well done either. Bruce
No, I don't know anything about this specific coin, but I've never seen one that could be considered an advertisement. I think they're made by...
What city is the USR Co. token from, funnycoins? Bruce
I know how you feel when something comes up that you really want, Darryl. I go for it aggressively just as you've done here. Congratulations on an...
I remember you looking for that note, Darryl. I told you at the time that I'd keep an eye out for one and I have. Unfortunately, I haven't run...
Well, I'm an optimistic fellow, Felix. I could be the first.:D Bruce
I think you might be able to take them with you, Paddy. I know I'm going to give it a go.:D Bruce
