<p>[QUOTE=&quot;BRandM, post: 2098440, member: 22729&quot;]These are two counterstamps issued by coin clubs that I was given recently by a fellow collector / researcher from Tennessee. He doesn&#039;t collect modern issues like this so thought I&#039;d like to have them. I appreciated the gift, as I especially look for club or collector issues as a offshoot of my regular counterstamp collection. There&#039;s a lot more of them out there than you might think.</p><p><br /></p><p>The Flushing(NY) Coin Club is from a nicely done prepared punch and celebrates their 10th anniversary in 1974. I don&#039;t have any more details as to how many were struck, who they were issued to, etc.</p><p><br /></p><p>The unique Jamestown(NY) Coin Club issue was struck by a member as a trial strike and an example of an economical way of commemorating the club&#039;s 25th anniversary. The idea was rejected, and they went on to issue a medal. Fittingly, it was designed by the same man who made the rejected counterstamp.</p><p><br /></p><p>Bruce[ATTACH=full]394184[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]394185[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]394186[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
