Is it normal for these to have mint mark? I thought they did not have mint marks. Found this yesterday and it looks like a P above the wing. Thoughts?

There are no mint marks on FE cents. This is some sort of damage from circulation or environmental conditions.



to the CCF!

@rf, first welcome to CCF. Second, while that sure does look like a letter P, I agree with the frog that this is some sort of damage rather than a mintmark.
