coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 11/28/2016 8:29 pm The bottom of the mint mark ends with a trumpet looking bell at the bottom loop. The upper loop ends with a rounded area. Yours looks normal. The top and bottom part of the mint marks can vary because there were hand punched and the example on Variety Vista show a wider bottom look and a thinner upper loop. Yours is just thinner on both loops. Made from the same punch, but punch alighment varied from the two examples. (the puching may have been tilted on one set of punchings, and mover vertical on the other set of punchings) They mint mark punch was punched more than one time. We can see that on the RPMs. But in this case there was no spread between the punching. Just thicker loops. Edited by coop 11/28/2016 8:32 pm Report this Post to the Staff
