Title: Odd font stamps
Post by: running-man on November 03, 2017, 10:36:51 PM
I figured I'd make a thread where we can dump oddly shaped fonts stamped into refurbs.  With M08s recent 'as-issued' letter gun with suspect 'matching' hardware and jstin2's intriguing '50 with the matching receiver/receiver cover font fresh in my mind, I ran across this one while doing the Sept gunbroker report.  Quite a bizarre letter И that I don't remember seeing before now, almost looks like a bastardized H:

The carrier is normal though:
