<p>[QUOTE="100mon, post: 1599528, member: 5690"]I haven't noticed any higher frequency of counter stamped coins on eBay or heritage, but those are only in the areas I am looking in, which is american coins and east asian coins. I find them really fascinating pieces of history. with wear on a coin, you cant tell where it has been, only that it has been around, but if it was stamped, you know where it had passed through a shop or certain part of the country. i only have one countermarked coin, and it was the only way I could afford a seated liberty dollar.</p><p>[ATTACH]224723.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
