    That's a spiel marke token! Essentially play money or a gaming counter, as I understand it.

    Here is another I sold recently, which was a mashup of an Argentine obverse design of the 1890s muled with a design mimicking the USA $10 Liberty reverse of the same era.

    (here- have some nice wobbly GIF animations to make you woozy) ;)

    ∆ Freedom Girl reminds me of Brazil Girl on their 70's 50centavos.

    That's a beautiful portrait on that one, longnine. It would look good on a U.S. coin depicting Liberty.

    Bruce - thx for the research so far. I had a hunch it was a religious counterstamp but I'd love to hear any other opinions.

    I just won another counterstamped 1797 penny - marked PIOUS with a prepared punch. I'll post pictures once I get it. I assume that one is a religious theme.

    You got me hooked on these counterstamped 1797 English pennies and 2p after you posted that great pictograph one you purchased...

    So far, the consensus seems to be religious. Unfortunately, the man in the UK who identified the Resurrection coin underwent major surgery this past Friday. Although I'm sure he'll respond eventually, it may take some time. When I hear from him, I'll be sure to let you know, Jeff.

    I like the old cartwheel English coins too. It's a large, heavy coin that takes a counterstrike very well. Usually the old English stamps are of better quality than the American counterparts I've noticed. The craftsmen of the time had better steel to work with and were more skilled in some cases. That would change in time as American makers improved. The old American Primitive marks had their own charm though.

    Looking forward to seeing your "Pious" stamp.

    I love all your medals, yarm. There are so many types of exonumia I'd like to collect, I just don't have the means to do so.

    I have posted this in World coins already but I guess it should be of interest to the exonumia specialists too. I think it is the coolest token I have ever owned!
