MintPenny Valued Member United States 74 Posts	Posted 08/29/2022 1:00 pm Hello, Found this nickel and it looks like there might be a die chip on the S mintmark. But zooming in it looks like it might also be doubled? Thanks for any insights you can provide. Report this Post to the Staff

MakesNoCentsToMe Valued Member United States 299 Posts	Posted 08/31/2022 5:35 pm Definitely appears to be a 'filled in' mm or a die chip on the mm (I'm new so not exactly sure what the exact term is.) I can't help you on the doubling question but there is a 1954 S DDR you I'm looking at currently that is on variety vista you can check out. Report this Post to the Staff

MintPenny Valued Member United States 74 Posts	Posted 09/01/2022 10:32 am Thank you for the responses. I learned that it isn't possible to have a doubled mint mark so thanks for the piece of info. also. I really appreciate the opportunity to learn. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 09/01/2022 3:25 pm Looks like a Grease Fill and on the right side of the mintmark, slight Machine Doubling. No evidence of a RPM on this one. (the mintmark would show a double punching event if it were a RPM) http://varietyvista.com/05%20JN%20R...%201954S.htm Note how much larger the RPMs are enlarged on evidence of more than one mintmark punch is visible on the listing on this site?
