I replied on your other thread that I thought it might be a counterstamp of some kind, but the pic is still too fuzzy to make anything out except...
In the blow-up I can see the "L" clearly, but I'm not sure about the rest. I'm glad I don't own this coin, it would drive me crazy trying to...
Thanks for the thread Chris, it will be a good lesson for me since I'm brand new to this. I won't guess a grade because I don't even know what to...

I do recall reading something a few years back, by Dave Bowers I believe, in regard to the racketeer nickel. He pretty much said what you did...
