    red x, nice.

    After edit, it is just a counterstamp. Neat though.

  • Fixed

  • NIce coin, just fixed the link for you.
  • Those are fairly common, and in fact I have a stamp to stamp my own. We give them to Entered Apprentice masons in my lodge. There is anotehr nat punch that "dishes" the penny and puts the square and compasses in the bottom of the "dish".

    There are some cool Masonic coins out there. In my opinion, one of the neater ones is the carved large cent, commemorating membership to the royal arch.

    I've been collecting silver Blue Lodge coins for a number of years, and I have some neat Civil War tokens in the collection as well.
