<p>[QUOTE=&quot;BRandM, post: 1298029, member: 22729&quot;]Thanks for the comments.</p><p><br /></p><p>Chris: Good to see you posting again my friend. The font and look of Skalbe&#039;s stamp tells us it&#039;s much newer than the coins they&#039;re stamped on. It could be mistaken for a late 19th Century issue though (which some collectors have done). To his credit though, he&#039;s never tried to pass them off as old counterstamps. As a matter of fact they&#039;re listed as contemporary in both Brunk and Rulau. From what I understand he used to give them out at shows from his table.</p><p><br /></p><p>Tonedcoins: If you&#039;re really interested in counterstamps, there&#039;s always a lot listed on ebay. You can usually pick them up for a decent price, but like always you have to be careful what you&#039;re buying and from whom. If you do see one you might be interested in p/m me and I&#039;ll look it up for you.</p><p><br /></p><p>Chris: That 7 week old is more important than the coins Chris. You sure have your hands full with the young ones. Anytime you get around to it I&#039;ll be glad to see them.</p><p><br /></p><p>Bruce[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
