Its round and separates to expose the stamp which says: RC Oct 18 1969. Its silver and has a little clasp on top that is pulled to open it.

The only thing I could find with a correlation between RC and the date was an obit from Florida. Roger ?R.C.? Campagnolo III - cape-coral-daily-breeze.com | News, sports, community info. - Cape Coral Daily Breeze

Could it be a hand stamp from a rock concert that took place on that date? HH

Do the letters and numbers look like they could be removed/changed at one time? Hard to tell from the photo but the letters and numbers look like typeset. Because it's in reverse and clips into the other part I'm thinking it was a stamp.

BK, it could be because October 18, 1969 was on a Saturday. Breezie

Im still looking things up but with no luck so far. I do like the rock concert idea. Thanks for your help, its greatly appreciated.

 

[GatorGirl77]

I thought that too initially but I cant remove the letters at all.

I thought that too initially but I cant remove the letters at all.

I wouldn't think you could at this point since it's so old and they may have used wax or similar to set them. Are they separated at all that you can see?

Either way... still looks like typeset letters.

 

[Breezie]

Does this help?

 

[GatorGirl77]

I cant really tell if theyre one piece or not. I cleaned it wiyh a toothbrush but Im afraid I might damage it. Looked with mag glass still couldnt tell.

 

[GatorGirl77]

I agree I think its a manual stamp. Just interested in where its from, but could be someone's personal stamp too.

I'd say the date commemorates something a busness an event? What history do you know about it or where did you acquirer it? HH

[GatorGirl77]

I have no history and I actually decided to hunt my property. I agree the date does commemorate an event. Im going to check with Property Appraiser to see what existed here before my home.

Iggy & The Stooges Oct 18, 1969 at The Silverbell Hideout, Clarkston, MI
thats all i could find for that date but there may of been i lot more

Maybe it's an early Rotary Club stamp. I'm sure the date was able to be changed because it wouldn't make since to construct such a stamp that was only good for 1 day or a single date.

 

[GatorGirl77]

Thats true and none if those concerts were in my area.
