itsonlymoney Valued Member United States 142 Posts	Posted 01/27/2021 2:22 pm I purchase this dime as a small s dime but in CLOSER inspection I noticed several things but I'm not sure if they are ERRORS. On reverse the mint mark seem to BE PUNCHED on bottom and top center of pole. Also it seems like it was struck on another coin, newer dime. Your opinion is appropriated.

The S at the bottom is normal place for the mint marks. Your Merc was struck in San Francisco. Report this Post to the Staff
mrwhatisit Pillar of the Community United States 2983 Posts	Posted 01/27/2021 4:15 pm The mintmark position is only found after the word ONE in that little place at the bottom of the dime. I'm not to sure how it would have design elements of a newer dime though. Report this Post to the Staff
itsonlymoney Valued Member United States 142 Posts	Posted 01/27/2021 5:08 pm THE t on the word LIBERTY LOOKS DOUBLE . The w DESIGNER name on close inspection is really curved like if WAS a d. That's why I thought it might of being STRUCK on another coin. Report this Post to the Staff

itsonlymoney Valued Member United States 142 Posts	Posted 01/27/2021 5:14 pm The s on top its upsidedown. It has the vertical LINE at end and the bottom is rounded like the serif, I dont think a hit would do that. I'll post picture upside down. Report this Post to the Staff
