<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ExoMan, post: 4757283, member: 72588&quot;]Counterstamped coins were created using punches that were created to leave an impression, whereas love tokens were engraved or cut into the surface. Although both methods alter the coin&#039;s surface, the processes are not one-in-the-same. On occasion, counterstamps were created with lettering in italics. This &quot;artful&quot; font, created on a punch, can give the counterstamp the look of having been engraved.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
