<p>[QUOTE=&quot;BRandM, post: 1711433, member: 22729&quot;]I agree kookoo but many times stamps are struck over design elements out of necessity. Obviously the size of the stamp and the host coin can dictate where the stamp is placed. Political counterstamps are often struck over the portrait of a king or queen or the symbol of a country for visual impact. A good example would be the Irish Republican Army stamps of recent years. The IRA always stamped English coins by defacing the king or queen with their initials or with phrases or symbols.</p><p>[ATTACH]263227.vB[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Bruce[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
