Countermarked: The impression left by a countermark punch. A tool that is used to punch into a coin subsequent to the original striking an additional mark or symbol that had meaning in the contemporary context of the coin - for example to mark a specific payment or to revalue a coin). Objects from early modern collections sometimes bear countermarks as a sign of ownership.
Field smoothed: The field of a coin or medal has secondarily been fully or partly deepened in order to improve the relief of the legend or image. This procedure occurs especially with collectors' objects and is not part of the working process of a mint. Not to be confused with the re-cutting of parts of the design or legend on a coin, or the erasure of elements of them.
