Aziz_R Valued Member Saudi Arabia 66 Posts	Posted 07/22/2018 09:19 am Thank you. My English language not perfect. I didn't know that the font is different. The below photos for 1946 S from doubleddie.com update: I think you are right, it is normal. I compared it with the wrong font. Edited by Aziz_R 07/22/2018 09:38 am Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/22/2018 12:51 pm Yours is a MMS-004 http://varietyvista.com/01a%20LC%20...20Styles.htm The one you are comparing it to is a MMS=006 1946-S Ball serif is the one that was inverted. Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74945 Posts	Posted 07/22/2018 1:02 pm There's was no inverted mint mark for the 1950 S LWC. That only happened on the 1946 S LWC, and it's the only known LWC with an inverted mint mark. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/22/2018 1:05 pm A little known example of inverted mint marks are on Mercury dimes. Report this Post to the Staff

stoneman227 Pillar of the Community United States 2376 Posts	Posted 07/23/2018 3:00 pm I posted this in another thread, but the 1910-s rpm-003 Lincoln is a inverted S/inverted S . 1946 was not the only year this happened. Report this Post to the Staff
stoneman227 Pillar of the Community United States 2376 Posts	Posted 07/23/2018 3:32 pm Since Coop posted some inverted S Mercs how about a 1953-D inverted D Washington quarter. Of course a normal D was punched over the inverted one. Report this Post to the Staff
