2014 "B" Counterstamp Coins

[Goldseeker]

This year in Brisbane, to date there has been two locations where the "B" Counterstamp coins have been issued/released.

The first issue I believe was at the ANDA Show several months ago and the second release/issue was at the Brisbane Agricultural Show, (Ekka I think).

A very kind gent of this forum forwarded to me two coins from the Ekka Show and as a result of discussions elsewhere on this forum, I took a very close examination of both the ANDA and Ekka show releases.

This is the result:

1:   The reeding alignment of the letter "A" of Australia to that of the reeding appear to be the same.
2:   The circle surrounding the letter "B" from the ANDA Show breaks the navigation line on the left of the circle:


whereas the circle on the Agricultural issued counterstamp doesn't:



This could be because of the initial alignment by the press operators.

Now as a result of the close examination, I have found that I am now the owner of a very good Double "B" Counterstamp from the ANDA Show that I didn't know I had.   Have a look:



One can see the "B" to the left, that breaks the navigational line with the overprint over the "B" in the circle.

Now, because of this, I am now after a single foldered "B" Counterstamp from the ANDA Show to complete my $1 collection.   If anyone can assist, please PM me.

Sorry GS but if you'd have asked before I got rid of them, could always ask Kim or Jen if they could spare one
