I want to have a dynamic stamp on the Quick Tools toolbar.  When I right click and select "Stamps" the only options in the Bates numbering tool.  Is there a way to have a dynamic stamp on the toolbar so it is only one click away?

No, you can only add the Stamp tool itself to the toolbar, not a specific

stamp.

I also have the same problem.
Why is the BATES NUMBERING is the ONLY option available in the "Add a Stamp" 

I am super annoyed by it when I can previously add a specific dynamic Stamp in the Tool

It's not one click and the "stamps" you're looking for are hidden within the "Comment" group.   To add the stamp right click the quick access tool bar and select "customize quick tools", navigate to the "comment" and click to drop down the selection.  Find and select "stamp" icon and click the  (+ and arrow up) to add it to the quick access.

Once you have selected your favorite you can type K as a shortcut

I know your original question is quite old, but I was having the same issue (I'm a court reporter and have to stamp a lot of exhibits). 

It's not a perfect solution, but if you open the stams via the Tools page and then select the Stamp Palette, it will remain open and you can use that to select your stamp instead of the five or so clicks it takes to find it under the comment menu.

This works for quick access to a specific stamp. Thanks!

FOUND IT,

The Stamp quick tool is under Comment for some ungodly reason instead of, you know, Stamp.

Seems to only work in Acrobat Pro DC - any ideas for Acrobat DC Reader to Customise Toolbars?

Come on Adobe please make our lives easier this is silly.  I am an accountant and I have to stamp reviewed on each and every invoice for our Accounts Payable department to pay.  I should be able to dock every darn stamp if I want.  In Microsoft Excel I can why not Adobe Pro DC.  Silly horrible computing

It's possible to use a script to add a specific stamp at a specific location on the current page. You would then be able to add the button that runs this script to the menu-bar. However, you will need to first click the button (which will place the stamp on the page) and then move and resize the stamp manually to the desired location.
