HondoB Bedrock of the Community United States 25823 Posts	Posted 11/19/2023 10:20 pm Variability in mint mark placement was the norm. Quote: Mint marks were punched into working dies by hand up until 1990. For any given series and date, a collector could track down any number of minutely different Mint mark locations.

Bsiefferman New Member United States 20 Posts	Posted 11/20/2023 10:26 am Thank you! I am relatively new to the game of error hunting. Our family has collected coins and notes for a long time but never more than the obvious valuable items (silver, star notes etc) So I have much to learn Report this Post to the Staff
