After finding the last 1946-S IMM, I`m thinking I may have a new inverted mint mark. Its pretty beat up so its hard to tell. I didn't think obverse/reverse pictures would be needed at this time. Let me know what you think. Thanks!

Well your coins mint mark style is a MMS-004 which is normal for this year. While it looks larger, I didn't see a match to a RPM for V.V. site. The MMS-006 is the mint mark style that had the inverted mint mark. (That style is called a Ball serif for that year. There were three different mint marks that year)

The best way to tell the differences on the 1946-S inverted is the illustrations below.

Thanks Mr. Coop. I was hesitant to throw it back because I thought I saw the dip in the curl of the Mintmark on the bottom instead of the top. Thank you for your help!
