    @Benito

    Novelty. Counterstamp. Done after the US Mint. There are many designs out there.

    Novelty counterstamp.... Not a mint product... Cheers, RickO

    I haven't seen that one before. The Kennedy looks at Lincoln counterstamp is the most common from that era. Most bring a minimal premium.

    All glory is fleeting.

    Great PMD. Maybe Steph Curry should be on the reverse!

    See "chop marks" for similar graffiti. No value beyond 1-cent.

    (PS: It's "lunar" not "luna."

    I've never seen that stamp before, but it is done privately, not made at the U.S. Mint.

    I think somebody would give two or three dollars for it, sooner or later, but that buyer might be difficult to find.

    I don't know who Steph Curry is, so I looked it up. Slow news day celebrity.

    These are the sorts of comments the disagree button was for.

    What he means is, no value to him. very bold to state no value beyond 1-cent, as an object statement of fact. If you listed it on ebay, I bet itd sell for over $0.50.

    And his insinuation that chop marks are similar graffiti is wrong, as there are entire groups of people who collect them - Rose, tradedollarnut , DDR, and plenty of others.

    More Than It's Chopped Up To Be

    This wins. For those who don't know - Steph Curry is an very good NBA player who happens to believe that man never went to the moon. ha!

    I haven't seen it before either.
    It should be worth a buck or two to the Lincoln and/or space enthusiast.
