VINTAGE UNKNOWN COIN DIE, need help finding out what coin.

[MyOldCoins]

Hey All

 

Pick up some vintage coin dies today but not sure what coin they were used for or anything. Can anyone help me out.

 

Here is a link to the image of the dies. https://s18.postimg.org/qfjqnn4dl/NOTSURE.jpg

 

Thanks!

I don't recognize it, but someone here may.

hoping, would be nice to find out what coin the die was used for. Makes it hard when the text in the dies are hard to read.

I'm thinking that image manipulation software probably has the ability to do a mirror image, which would make it much easier to read what actual coin this die was created in order to strike.

True that may work and show a better image to work with but I do not have such software. Maybe someone here can provide such an image.

Looks similar to one I made.... but it's not.

I don't recognize it but if you can't get any better leads then you might try these guys. They used to do overstrikes for people and might still.
