Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 05/28/2015 1:53 pm Problem is in 1974 if you have a filled mintmark making it into a "P" coin no one would know it. What I find more interesting are the 1968, 69, and 70 "P" nickels from filled or polished away mintmarks that no one pays any attention to. (Philadelphia didn't make nickels in those years, but business strike coins with no mintmark do exist.) Report this Post to the Staff
