<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Joshua Lemons, post: 8611128, member: 82388&quot;]I don&#039;t really know and the person I purchased it from wasn&#039;t entirely sure either. What I did know is I liked it! I know anchor marks were employed by the Dominican Republic in the late 18th century on Spanish cobs, but was unable to find this specific one.&nbsp; But, the anchor was also used as a privy mark on French coins of the period and interestingly in 1822 an attempt was made to unite the entirety of Hispaniola joining the Spanish Dominican Republic and French Haiti.&nbsp; So a possible connection there.&nbsp; Also the seller found reference that it may have been a military/navy counterstamp.&nbsp; I agree in thinking it is quite a nice stamp and probably official as well.&nbsp; I&#039;m full of ideas, but no concrete evidence... yet![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
