Newmismatist Valued Member United States 197 Posts	Posted 03/04/2013 4:13 pm I've examined the coin carefully with my 10X loupe and can find no trace of a mint mark. I even had my son take a look at it with his 15-year-old eyes, and he could see no trace of one either. Thanks to everyone who has weighed in! Report this Post to the Staff
