I received these two Irish political counterstamps in the mail yesterday. It took 16 days to get here from Northern Ireland. It typically takes...
Another nice one, dwhiz. I like the way the artists "sign" their work. I suppose all don't though. Bruce
Looking forward to seeing it. Bruce
I came up with some info and wanted to post it for anyone who's interested, Jeff. I still don't know for sure the purpose of the State Quarter...
I'll be sure to post anything new here, Jeff. Since my first post, I've been checking into them a bit more. The claim of several hundred thousand...
They're nice pieces, dwhiz. I always liked Hobos, but never bought one. Someday maybe. Bruce
I just came across this older thread and I've since discovered what the "1/4 Notes" stamp means, Nikki. I hope you'll see my response. Thousands...
Thanks!
Unusual hobo nickel, dwhiz. Do you know what the small counterstamp on the reverse means? The artist's initials, maybe? Bruce
The hole was added sometime after the token was struck. A small part of the horse's mane is obliterated by it. I live near Camden, unfortunately,...
I have a lot of this numismatic related exonumia like you do, Circus. I've never seen anything issued by Eric P. Newman, though. Nice!! Bruce
I'm familiar with the TIS AN OLD RYE counterstamp, Jeff, but haven't seen a picture of one until now. Thanks for posting it. I'll admit that I did...
Sort of like offering the Brooklyn Bridge for sale, Wehwalt. I'm sure a $200 offer would be good. Lol! Bruce
Yeah, Randy, that or "Honey, does this dress make me look fat?" Clueless husband replies " No, dear, you are fat." YIKES!! Bruce
No problem, Jack, send it along.
I don't collect that kind of material, but it sounds reasonable to me. The more original packaging and inserts that come with it, the better. Bruce
Very impressive medal, DUNK. Having the original packaging with it adds to its interest too. Thanks for showing it. Bruce
I'm sure there was a limit to how many were issued, Jack, so it could be some marker as you say. The token was originally manufactured without the...
That's about how it happened for me too, Doug. The only difference is when I found them they were ancient. Been collecting for 65 years, but only...
It would have, Harley. It seems that there must be a definitive answer out there somewhere. I've just never come across it. It's always amazed me...
Separate names with a comma.
