Comment

The Numistamp set reproduced the United States coins on 2-1/4x1-3/8" plaques and looked like large metallic post stamps. Includes all denominations/types in existence through 1978 such as the clad Kennedy half dollars, Ike dollars and Bicentennial types. These were designed by and minted for the late Mort Reed - an illustrator and columnist for Coin World for many years.
