n9jig Pillar of the Community United States 997 Posts	Posted 02/27/2013 06:28 am The phrase is correct. While 1.4 million is extremely low compared to regular recent mintages, the fact that the coin was only distributed with mint sets means it is easily obtainable in uncirculated condition.

By inference from both our your statements is it safe to say all mintsets (proof and circulated) produced during the period are only from West Point or from both. Report this Post to the Staff

I was only stating you can not tell the difference between a Philly Cent and a West Point Cent as they both lack mint marks. Report this Post to the Staff
