Title: $1 2012 Bluebell Wheat Sheaf
Post by: 5 rubles on August 01, 2015, 08:24:10 AM
Did that Bluebell counterstamp flower coin come in any other mintmarks than C?

If I remember correctly the "Bluebell" name was used for only the coin that had the ACT flower stamped on it.

I think you might be right and they come on a blue bit of plastic with a pic of the mint on it.
