<p>[QUOTE="giorgio11, post: 742741, member: 17094"]Brunk's book is great; I have it here. I looked up D.H. Day (all the counterstamps are listed in alpha order). Brunk lists the known coins that have a particular counterstamp, in this case he lists (under D-189, his catalog number):</p><p>Large Cent U.K.</p><p>Small Cents: 1857 1858 (2) 1864 (2)</p><p>Nickel: 1868</p><p>Half Dollar: 1834</p><p>With L. RICE (R-234)</p><p>Small Cents: 1859 1860</p><p><br /></p><p>Brunk also provides locations for counterstampers when he knows them. In the case of D.H. Day he does not provide a location, New York or otherwise. There is an E. DAY just below from Brooklyn, who counterstamped coins both E. DAY and E. DAY/BROOKLYN. Brunk provides photos also of some counterstamped coins, but none for D.H. Day. The E. DAY/BROOKLYN counterstamp is on a Mexican two reales. Hope this helps!</p><p><br /></p><p>PS Remember to search <a href="http://www.amazon.com" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.amazon.com" rel="nofollow">www.amazon.com</a> when you are considering buying numismatic books, as they aggregate many sellers! Besides the link above which takes you to a new copy of the Brunk book for $82.95, a quick search through Amazon led me to a "Used-Like New" copy for $50.
