I was looking through some silver dimes I had in a ziplock bag for varieties. And I am about 25% of the way through. And found this interesting specimen. Note that it is NOT a scratch. It is a 3 Dimensional arch of some kind next to the mint mark, protruding from the torch. Much like the 1964 D variety. Only this is an S mint from 1955. It looks like the top of an S to me. But. I could be seeing just...some random blob. Who knows. So. I am here to ask for your opinions and help if there is a variety of this type in the 1955 S Rosie Dime. Thanks! -Ryan Report this Post to the Staff

I checked an older publication and it didn't show any RPMs for that year. So it may just be a chip. Report this Post to the Staff

I looked and found nothing on it either. Just some repunched mintmarks is all. Who knows. Its why I post the questionable ones here. Thanks for your help. Report this Post to the Staff
