Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74776 Posts	Posted 09/02/2018 7:08 pm The Mint Employee punched the mint mark in a little bit crooked, into the die (mint mark positions will vary on different dies, when they still hand punched mint marks). The mint mark also shows Split Plate Doubling, exposing the Zinc core underneath, from the Copper plating getting too stretched out during the strike. http://www.error-ref.com/split-plate-doubling/ Errers and Varietys.

PennyPride Valued Member United States 84 Posts	Posted 09/02/2018 10:56 pm I've also always wondered about mint marks that are different sizes, namely 1973 D&S LMC. Report this Post to the Staff
