    But must say I am thrilled to have completed this set . The set has only 8 pcs to it as the mint discontinued it after Van Buren
    The last 3 under 3000 made. The retails are as follows
    J.Q.Adams $79. Monroe $49. Jackson $60. & Van Buren $85.
    I paid a total of $16. For the 4 and as noted in another post the 3rd,4th,and 5th for $4th ea.
    A full set of 8 trends for just under 200.00!

    Here's another pick up from last Sunday's show.
    I've always been a fan of the Australian Kookaburra bullion coins. I have most of the early dates but have missed a few dates including 2016.
    This was a no brainer as I traded another 1oz. Bullion coin for this specimen . So I'm even on this one "0" cost.
    My first 2017 coin.... 20170216_080546.jpg 20170216_080608.jpg

    Would you believe I have 3 different obverse die cracks on the way? Almost as much fun as VAMming. I'll post them up when I have them all in hand...:)

    So the other day I stopped by another little shop in the area that sells this and that...he had some sealed 64 proof sets. I offered $15 for pig in the poke ,hoping for maybe some toned coins. well none were toned but nice frosty devices. And a Blunt 9 Roosevelt sweet. 1964 Proof Kennedy.jpg 1964 Proof Washington.jpg 1964 Proof Roosevelt Blunt 9.jpg

    I got this back in 1993 or 1994 for 75¢. The reverse has some encrustations on it, so the dealer sold it to me thinking it was a regular 1908. It came out of his junk IHC bin. A bit of cleaning and the mint mark was revealed!

    That's the only reference I came across in my cursory search. Time period seams correct. Maybe the counteratamp guy, is it @BRandM ? Can help

    I wonder what type of premium this one would command. Its not a well know counterstamp, I don't think, or a popular business but it is a full name on a MORGAN and possibly an inventor so...

    Dewyell isn't listed in any reference I have, Cascade. I've not seen this one before, but Your inventor seems promising. I'll look into it and see if I can come up with anything. I'd say a value of $50 to $75 wouldn't be out of line, but probably not much more. Thanks for posting it.
