I picked these up today for two bucks, nothing special just some common 213, 158 & 65. I was after the fancy cancels.

Neat, trying to figure out what that first one is. Each quarter looks a little different

These cancels were made from cork carvings....sometimes they wear out or just break. Thus you see them not always 100% complete.

I have over 5,000 fancy cancels and every time I can get a new one I do. I pick a lot of them up pretty cheaply. These were just some new ones that I added. You can really get a lot of cheap ones with the smaller common bank notes.

The bottom two look like they could have grills on them? I like the #65 in the top left hand corner. They're all nice, Great grab for two smack-er-oos!
