<p>[QUOTE=&quot;longnine009, post: 3052989, member: 1886&quot;]There&#039;s a pretty interesting article in the new TAMS about a counter-stamp on a British 18 pence token and a seated dime from a dentist name Enoch Osgood. Osgood was also an inventer who patented the toothpick and a pain preventing tooth extractor. The article also sites Mechanic Arts Favorable to Liberty and Social Progress (trade journal?) as calling it &quot;highly objectionable.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>Google has the patent filings for Osgood&#039;s tooth extractor:</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://patents.google.com/patent/US6011A/en" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://patents.google.com/patent/US6011A/en" rel="nofollow">https://patents.google.com/patent/US6011A/en</a></p><p><br /></p><p>If you click on the image you can expand it. I think I&#039;d prefer some local anesthesia to go with that &quot;painless extractor.&quot; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie7" alt=":p" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
