I haven't added a silversmith counterstamp to my collection in some time, so picked up this one off of eBay a week or so ago. I overpaid for it,...
That is a puzzle, Bill. Either an error or just poor research...or no research. CWT or not, it's still a neat token. Bruce
I DON'T have one of those, Numismat, so the mintage can be revised down to -3. <lol> Bruce

Thank you so much, Alok. Bruce

Do you own this coin, Endeavor? It's a beautiful piece with a high quality counterstamp very carefully placed so not to damage the design....
I'd say Good.
Great to hear from you again, my friend. It's been a long time...far too long. I checked out your photo gallery, Siggi. Great work and a load of...
