AMB Pillar of the Community United States 801 Posts	Posted 06/30/2016 09:58 am Trying to figure out the font and I'm certainly not sure, is this an inverted S? I tried using the 46 S as a comparison but not entirely convinced. http://www.lincolncentresource.com/...nverted.html Thx for looking Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/30/2016 11:19 am In order to compare for an inverted mint mark, you need to compare with the current mint marks for that year. The 1946 had three different styles. Best to compare with several examples from that year. As far as inverted mint marks for cents, there is only one that Variety Vista Lists: http://varietyvista.com/Variety%20M...n%20imms.htm There are two from that year that are different dies listed. But that is all that are known for cents. 19,985 Edited by coop 06/30/2016 11:20 am Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/30/2016 3:14 pm The Ball serif is the rarer find for this years mint marks. If you can find them in BU, they are keepers. Inverted or not. (of course the inverted one is even more rare) 19,988 Edited by coop 06/30/2016 3:15 pm Report this Post to the Staff
