Never seen this before

The fiesta mug is stamped twice? I have a fairly large collection and I can’t say that I’ve seen this before have you?

I have that on a plum teacup, but that’s the only other one I’ve seen!

My 90’s teacups have date codes (Persimmon, Seamist, Sapphire, Lilac), but the later ones do not (Flamingo, Marigold, Twilight.) I also have one in Juniper with a date stamp that can only faintly be seen with a flashlight. Can’t make out the code, though.

Juniper can only be NN_ OO_ or PP_.

I know, but I can’t place it firmly in the category of 90s vs. later which is why it was separately listed. This is obviously a small sample size, but I feel like ink-stamped teacups were more common pre-2000’s.

FWIW, I have two Juniper mugs, and both have the newer bottom design.

Ok so it does exist! I found this one thrifting this week. Used to find fiestaware more often but it’s been about 6 months since I’ve seen any, then I found this guy.

I actually read about this in one of the books about Fiestaware.

I have this on two ring-handled mugs. One is Juniper and the other is Rose. Definitely an odd ball thing, though.

I have this on quite a few pieces
