1944, 1946, 1948, 1957-D, wheats
1966, 1972 memorial cents
1916 Barber Dime
Five pieces have masonic symbolism. The two memorials have the unusual and secret code "Tubal-Cain" biblical reference (Genesis 4:22 "And Zillah, she also bare Tubalcain, an instructer of every artificer in brass and iron and all metals")
Depicted on these pieces in the secret symbolism of two balls and a cane--Tubal Cain--and stamped into coins of copper. The reverse of the die is the masonic square and compass symbol.
Three other pieces exhibit the square and compass punch as well, and the 1944 wheat is plated in silver or chrome and also holed at 12:00.
The 1946 wheat has a single "A" punch, and given the state of preservation of the coin and age on the stamp, it appears to be contemporary to the coin.
The 1916 dime is G and contains the punched letters "TSH". Very similar type font as the 1946 wheat with similar serif. Seems likely that the dime was punched about the same time as the cent (1940s).
All pieces $18 shipped. NOW $15 shipped!

We are like children who look at print and see a serpent in the last letter but one, and a sword in the last.
