lknerr Valued Member United States 167 Posts	Posted 07/09/2007 10:00 pm Here in Michigan I mostly find 80% P and 20% D, very seldom S even in business strikes. However I found a 1973 S Lincoln I swear at one time was proof. Report this Post to the Staff
zacharycash Pillar of the Community United States 668 Posts	Posted 07/09/2007 10:29 pm Lucky. I've found hardly any P minted coins ever, except when I was in Washington D.C. Btw where do you get boxes of coin rolls? The bank I'm guessing? Report this Post to the Staff
Gary Burke Rest in Peace United States 3730 Posts	Posted 07/10/2007 03:16 am Living in Colorado, most all coins are Denver mint. Laying on my desk right now are 22 coins. 21 are Denver, and one, a 2005 nickel, is Philadelphia. Report this Post to the Staff
CPChicago Valued Member United States 185 Posts	Posted 07/10/2007 11:23 am In Chicago I would say it leans more towards D. And finding anything with an S is a good day, not that it's worth anything more, but is still fun. I also keep every S coin I've come across, which is probably less than 100 coins.

just carl Bedrock of the Community United States 20753 Posts	Posted 07/10/2007 5:34 pm OK, OK so I'm living in the present and forgot about the S mint coins in the past. Just don't see them to much any more. For many reasons people take all S mint coins out of circulation and hoard them. I remember not long ago at a flea market where a dealer was pushing for people to buy rolls of S mint coins. Nothing special but he was asking way, way to much because they were S mints. I just went and looked at a pile of change I have. I'm one of these people that puts all change in a big can at the end of the day. I sporatically looked through that and found that about 90% were all D mints. Looks like we've been invaded by Denver. Odd since Phoili is so close. Maybe they don't like people from Chicago.

arthrene Pillar of the Community United States 1713 Posts	Posted 07/10/2007 7:13 pm Why do some Philadelphia coins have a P mint mark and others have no mint mark? Report this Post to the Staff
lknerr Valued Member United States 167 Posts	Posted 07/10/2007 7:45 pm If I had 50 posts I give you the straight link to the US mint's answer. So since I can't do that yet, here's how I found it. I used yahoo search engine, type "P Mint Mark" then click on th US mint's link. I think it was the first one. Edited by lknerr 07/10/2007 9:33 pm Report this Post to the Staff
