A.E.A. FULLE / R on an undated Motto Liberty Seated half dollar. Brunk-Unlisted, Rulau-Unlisted. Host coin AG, Cleaned.Most of the counterstamp horizontally bisects the obverse, but the final letter R is placed alone on the reverse at the eagles head. Bright silver surfaces for the host coin with a glossy texture that points to a cleaning. Wear is heavy, especially around the obverse periphery where only the tops of the digits 18 in the date are discernible. The mintmark area is clear, however, allowing us to attribute this Liberty Seated half dollar to the Philadelphia Mint. An interesting counterstamp unlisted in the major references on the subject.
