That Indian is a bucket list kinda find Jeff, congrats on it, the silvers and the rest! You used the Explorer again?
..............is the counterstamped 1869 injun. Here's what little info I found on the stamp: "This C.F. ULRICH logo is the mark of Conrad F. Ulrich of New Haven, CT. He was a master engraver with the Winchester Rifle Company. Today, his artistically engraved rifles realize many thousands of dollars at auction. About ten of Conrad's stamped coins are known, of which this 1882 is the latest date thus far recorded." Really happy to have this coin, which is also a semi-key date as well. If anyone happens to find anymore info on C.F. Ulrich please feel free to share! .............
I'm guessing it was used as advertising on something they knew would get circulated? Just a guess though. Pretty cool though. I want to make one now.Wonder why they counter stamped an ihp
