    The case with the stamp was bought at a yard sale. I got the case home and lifted the picture to see if there was a name and found two 1864 three cent telegraph stamps. I found the two bullets in Perryville and purchased the two coins from 1864 to fill out the 1864 case.

    Thanks so much for sharing- your stuff is awesome! I love the 1864 case, very creative- great story about the yard sale. The old antique store is really neat.. I want to go inside next time we're driving by! Wonder if he's open on Saturdays?
