Title: Re: A Wonderful Saturday Afternoon Post by: Nighthawk on June 07, 2010, 01:57:50 AM What do you mean by "counter stamp"? :)
Title: Re: A Wonderful Saturday Afternoon Post by: Pocketcoins on June 07, 2010, 09:55:27 AM What do you mean by "counter stamp"? :) Folks stamp different things on the bills. Like the Where's George. I know you have seen this one. I have seen different things on them over the years and was just wondering if any one collected them.Title: Re: A Wonderful Saturday Afternoon Post by: Nighthawk on June 07, 2010, 05:47:58 PM O.K. I see what you mean now. Yes, I've seen "Where's George?", and also I have a few $2 notes with a 13 cent stamp & postmark from 1976 on them. ;D
