Geez, what woman would marry a guy who can't afford to stamp a larger coin so her whole name fits on it? Come on LC, get with it! She should at...
That's interesting, JBK. I'll have to take a look at mine. Would you happen to have a photo of it that might show the effect? Bruce
The Bil-Mar counterstamps don't come up often, so I had to wait awhile before I had the opportunity to buy one. I'm familiar with the"Tis an old...
I suppose some people do it just to have some fun, Abigail. Surprisingly, there are a lot more contemporary counterstamps out there than you might...

You're right about that, Jack. I can't think of any coins I have with a flag on it, but I'll look around. And a big thank you to you and all...
Oh, sorry, I missed it. Still a decent piece, although in the ground for awhile. Thanks. Bruce
Nice to see you here on CT, Mr.Frip. Yes, PHILAD is an old abbreviation for Philadelphia. Another is PHILADA. The name is too long to stamp on a...
The older political pieces like this one are rare, Dplodocus. Most from this era are defacements, such as scratched out eyes, tooling to the...
I found my example of Houck and took a picture of it. Bruce[ATTACH]
