M0ntg0mery New Member United States 33 Posts	Posted 02/14/2012 7:47 pm I was going through a brand spanking new roll of RBH dollars and I came across 2 out of the 25 that have a weak mint mark. The P has no (almost no) leg and looks like the top of the P is more deeply struck. Wondering if anyone else has noticed this and if it's anything to hang onto. Thanks.

M0ntg0mery New Member United States 33 Posts	Posted 02/15/2012 12:05 am I found several with double punched stars on the rim edge as well...probably going to be common amongst these I guess! Report this Post to the Staff
