James Lackeys Coins505 Valued Member United States 75 Posts	Posted 01/19/2020 12:12 pm I did some research and found that they are both just regular mint marks. They are the small s used from 1917-1940. The coins are 1940 and 1941. Thank you all for your replies. Report this Post to the Staff
T-BOP Rest in Peace United States 18456 Posts	Posted 01/19/2020 3:19 pm All Mercury dimes had normal S mint marks with the EXCEPTION of 1928 and 1941, they were both struck with large and small S's . And in 1945 the mint produced large and Micro S's. Report this Post to the Staff
