Jim0815 Pillar of the Community United States 5239 Posts	Posted 05/16/2019 12:53 pm While searching through a mixed bag of cents I found this 1946 S LWC that looks like it could be inverted and possibly be a stage B. It is awful hard for me to say yay or nay. The last pic was borrowed from VV. Insight please. Report this Post to the Staff

Greasy Fingers Pillar of the Community United States 7042 Posts	Posted 05/16/2019 1:27 pm OH,It's mms-004...not mms-006 Edited: lets remember that in 1946 the San Fran. mint used 3 different mint marks mms-004,mms-006 (which was inverted on some dies)and mms-007...I believe Jims coin is mms-004 normal cent Edited by Greasy Fingers 05/16/2019 3:11 pm Report this Post to the Staff

stoneman227 Pillar of the Community United States 2376 Posts	Posted 05/16/2019 3:27 pm As GF stated , this is the wrong style mintmark to be the inverted variety. This is a Serif mintmark, the inverted one was a Ball Serif Report this Post to the Staff
