marymanard Valued Member United States 111 Posts	Posted 11/24/2011 6:16 pm -ancientcoinguy - yes its in the 9, what do you think about it? is it a mintmark? Report this Post to the Staff
ancientcoinguy Pillar of the Community United States 842 Posts	Posted 11/24/2011 7:01 pm I doubt it. I have not heard of an S mintmark like that before. I imagine it is most likely just a die issue. Report this Post to the Staff
amida17 Pillar of the Community United States 4897 Posts	Posted 11/24/2011 7:15 pm Just a curiously placed die gouge. IMO Report this Post to the Staff

Tim Stroud Pillar of the Community United States 2661 Posts	Posted 11/24/2011 11:50 pm I don't know if it because I want to see it or what, but in the last pic I actually see a horizontal S inside that 9. Just in case, you may want to have the folks at Coneca take a look. It can't hurt. http://conecaonline.org/ Report this Post to the Staff
marymanard Valued Member United States 111 Posts	Posted 11/25/2011 12:53 am Tim, Thanks. that is what it looks like to me. but of course I don't want to get my hopes up. its probably a die crack or whatever. but I guess I'll have to contact coneca thanks for your help Report this Post to the Staff
pyrbob Rest in Peace United States 1943 Posts	Posted 11/25/2011 07:18 am All everyone is seeing is a die chip inside the 9. These are very common. I personally don't see a good resemblance to an S that would be the proper size for a mintmark. Look at the size of the D. An S mintmark would be the same size. Report this Post to the Staff
