One of my favorite counterstamped coins, listed in Brunk but PCGS didn't find it.

Finding a 1797 $1 naturally toned and original in a decent grade with a c/s in the field is not so easy.

    Very nice. Haven't heard from you in a while. Maybe I missed it.

    I have no idea how it works, but could it be that the counterstamp is unattributed and that is why they overlooked it?

    I was wondering about this - do you have to submit it as a token with Brunk attribution to get it on the holder?

    I am not a collector of counterstamps, but I always wonder what they signified. Some are easy... an advertisement for a business or person.... some are initials....though not always identified as to who. Such as this one... Who was W.H.? Cheers, RickO
