I found out today there are large and small mintmark varieties for the 1928-S and 1941-S Lincoln cents. Is there a price difference between these small and large mintmarks? If not, would you expect this variety to be recognized more in the future?

Coin Prices has the 1928 varieties listed; they're a couple dollars difference with the Large S being more expensive. In MS-60, the Small S is $74, but the Large S is $140

They also have both dates for dimes, just the 1928 for quarters and dollars.

I do know of the 28S (I have both) but I'm not familiar with the 41S large and small mintmark. Where did you see that?

I don't know. It would be awesome if someone can post pics of the small mintmark vs. large mintmark for the Merc the quarter and the cent! A list of price differences would also be greatly appreciated! Thanks, PP

Here is a link for the pennies. I use Cherrypicker manual for the dimes but I'm sure there is a link out there somewhere. nlp

xshift....thanks for that article, it's excellent. I'm now on the hunt for a 1928 large S in MS grade. Should provide me with a nice challenge but an even better reward!
