Hi, Anyone ever seen the kind of emblem stamped on a coin?
Kinda freaky!
Maybe even a trail Wavy?

Cool...
I'd put that in my added design bunch.
Can't tell you the meaning of it but it has some meaning.
Maybe it's related to Texas... the lone star?
I wonder what the little snowman like thing is?
Kinda fun to figure them out. Laughing

See a bunch of them:

Since we just had another weird counterstamped LMC on CCF, I balk at giving any sort of interpretation. However, a star pointing down has certain interpretations, such as a Pentagram, but I won't elaborate further. Laughing

Oh...

I think it's the Order of the Eastern Star.
Although the center shape is a bit different but there's many similar things on google.

If it were blue,and had rays falling below, I would say ir looks like the Dodgers "Dodger Blue" star.[ This is another one...

Ed, I believe you saw the reverse of this one. It was so deeply sunken that I doubt that it would take much to actually punch it right out of the coin.

Dick,

Some believe that Jesus was a hoax, and worship God, just not the God of Christianity. This star is emblematic of that other God, and some know him as SATAN. Myself, I pray to Jesus and the one true God, his father. Go ahead, roll your dice elsewhere, and then try to sleep. No rest for the wicked or weary, I have heard it said. An honest man's pillow is his peace of mind, wherever they choose to bed down. Brothers. Exclamation

That must be what all the hieroglyphics inside the star means?

Garryn, I don't know what the ones in the star that Teri posted, as I have never seen that type before, but on the one I posted, it is the Freemasons. The square, and compass are used in building. I just looked at the first post, and the star id oriented downward, and is five points. The freemasins "star", is formed by the compass, and square, making a SIX-pointed star. I don't know what the frist is, but I would like to see a really large, clear view of it. I like mysteries!

Sure, Dick I am familiar withthe Freemason logo. The other one is interesting. It may be some religious or anti-religious symbol. Im sure if you google a description like "star pointing downward" something will turn up. I will try that later. Maybe Kurt already knows.
