    It is interesting but of no value. It is a privately done punch. I have seen several through the years so I have wondered if they were part of a tobacco ad campaign in the sixties.

    Counterstamp. Lincoln smoking a pipe, Lincoln smoking a cigar, etc.

    Those are fun finds....No numismatic premium, but a keeper for collectors. Cheers, RickO

    Like @JBK said ... counterstamp. You can also find them with Kennedy ... States ... Hemp leaf ...

    It was an earlier time...smoking was cool and not harmful back then. :o:*

    very amusing looks good and yes, I believe there are collectors for that.
    interesting.
    I have a Canadian 1 cent. someone manipulated the E and made it appear like a U or sort of.
    I nearly put it up for sale .. but a last second look made me aware of what it said.
    the coin is actually relatively rare, worth normally about 150 but altered...especially what it reads now... not even a cent.

    Today is the first day of the rest of my life
